1. Power on the 3D printer, select the leveling auxiliary G-code pre-installed in the Micro SD, and start the hotbed leveling.The leveling auxiliary G-code will pause at the four corners of the hot bed for 30s respectively. After 30s, the nozzle will move to the next point. After the pause at the fourth corners, the printer will exit the leveling.
3.If you feel that the nozzle leveling time at each point is too long or too short, you can modify the data below to change the time you want. Please note that if the residence time is too short, it may cause the nozzle to move to the next point before leveling is completed. Modify the data with caution.

Leveling Preparation

GCode generator for GLA10.png

1. Insert the attached CR2032 battery in the battery holder on the GLA10. Please be careful not to install the wrong positive and negative poles when installing the battery.

2. GCode generator for GLA10

  Please click the link  https://www.geeetech.com/specialpage/GCode_generator_for_GLA10.html
We provide the corresponding G-codes for different hotbed sizes.Please edit the relevant information in the leveling Gcode generator.


3. Please copy or export the leveling Gcode to the Micro SD card.
4. Please clean up the residual filament on the nozzle so as not to affect the leveling accuracy.

Start Leveling

1. Power on the 3D printer, select the leveling auxiliary G-code pre-installed in the Micro SD, and start the hotbed leveling.The leveling auxiliary G-code will pause at the four corners of the hot bed for 30s respectively. After 30s, the nozzle will move to the next point. After the pause at the fourth corners, the printer will exit the leveling.

2. After the leveling starts, the nozzle of the printer will automatically lift a certain distance. At this time, please place the end of the GLA10 with a cross pattern under the nozzle, and ensure that the nozzle is directly above the cross pattern of the GLA10.

3. At this time, please press and fix the other end of the GLA10 with one hand, and then quickly adjust the bot bed leveling nut corresponding to the current position of the nozzle with the other hand. When you see the green LED on the GLA10 just lights up, it means the current height of the hot bed is just right. Now, please take out the GLA10 and wait for the hot end moving to the next point. Pay attention that the GLA10 just lights up at all four corners of the hot bed.

4. After leveling, please use the Leveling test G-code to verify the leveling effect.If any problem is found during the leveling test, please re-level the hotbed.

Leveling test G-code

1.Please install the Cura slicing software (https://ultimaker.com/software/ultimaker-cura/#downloads)

install Cura

2.Please open the Cura slicing software and install the "Auto towers" plug-in in the Cura "Marketplace" plug-in market, and then restart Cura.
