Description

Since the position of the filamentsensor for the kp5L (stock) isn`t the best i designed 2 new one.

one is straight and the other is at an angle of about 40 degree (if the filament comes from behind)

the picture of "filamentsensor" shows the straight version V1...in V2 the screws to fix the sensor starts from behind (unvisible infront) and the Type "KP5L" was added

to add this to your printer you just need:

2 pieces screws M3 x 5 or M3x8

assembly (after disassembled the sensor):

1.: get the 2 front screws of the stepper a little bit out (maybe about 2mm)...do not loosen it at all

  1. get the filamentsensorholder you choosed in position....a bit under the 2 loosend screws

  2. use the 2 pieces of M3x5 or M3x8 screws to fix the holder in front

  3. tigthen all screws and get the sensor to the holder (you can use the stock screws)

  4. you can fix the hotendcable with small zippers by the rectangle holes

maybe recommend for the "schraeg"-Version: open the stepper case a bit and get the cable for the filamentsensor out at the back (since it isn't long enough to go by the front)

No supports needed!

Also see my other uploads...like the upgraded LCD wide screen case for the KP5L
