WP-UV-TV2 How to move your printer using a dolly cart

Transporting the WP-UV-T2 requires careful handling to prevent damage to its sensitive components, particularly the motorized belt wheels. Pulling or pushing the printer directly can result in costly damage. Therefore, it is essential to use the included 3-wheel dolly caster or, as an alternative, a dolly cart for transportation. This guide provides clear, step-by-step instructions to help you safely and efficiently move your printer, ensuring it remains in optimal working condition.

Tools Needed

Allan key tool set,3x 35 inches bungee cords, Phillips screwdriver, and a dolly for transportation

To transport your machine safely you will need to detach the following parts from your printer:

Printhead Assembly

Tank Chain

Top of the belt tensioner

Y-Axis Vertical Rail

1.Disconnect all cables except the sensors and pump box power cable from the back of your printhead assembly

Note: This is how it should look when the cables are disconnected.

2-Pull the disconnected cables through the hole.

3-Unplug the 3 cables on the back of the cabinet

4-Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the two screws that hold the bottom of the tank chain plate.

5-Slide the gray part of the cables out of the cable holder

6-Using a 3mm Allen key, loosen the two bolts that secure the top of the tank chain plate.

Note: You only need to loosen the bolts to release the plate.

7- To ensure safe transport, always wrap your tank chain securely.

8-Remove the four bolts that hold the printhead assembly.

Note: You can either use your knee to support the printhead assembly or ask a second person for assistance to prevent it from falling.

9-To ensure safe transport, always use the protective foam case for your printhead assembly.

10-Using your 4mm Allan key remove the two bolts that hold the top of the belt tensioner

11- Using your 5mm Allen key, loosen the four bolts that hold the black plate on the right side of the Y-Axis Vertical Rail (closer to the belt).

Note: Once you untie the last bolt, the plate will become completely loose.

12- Slide the plate down past the seam, then tighten the four bolts securely using your 5mm Allen Key.

13-Using your 5mm Allen key, loosen the four bolts that hold the black plate on the left side of the Y-Axis Vertical Rail.

14-Slide the plate upward past the seam, then securely tighten the four bolts using a 5mm Allen key.

15- Using a 4mm Allen Key loosen the bolt on the end of the Y-Axis Guide Rail.

Note: The Y-Axis Vertical Rail will become completely loose once you untie the bolt.

16-Securely place the top of the Y-Axis Vertical Rail on the back of the cabinet.

Note: We recommend placing protective material under to prevent scratches

17-Roll the belt and place it near the Y-Axis Vertical Rail.

18-Carefully wrap the Y-axis vertical rail with protective material; we used packing foam in this example.

19- Secure the Y-Axis vertical rail by fastening bungee cords around the center of the cabinet.

20-Slide the dolly’s metal plate under the wheels.

21-Secure the bungee cords to the dolly around the cabinet's top and bottom.

22-Tilt the dolly back onto its wheels while using one hand to steady the printer.

Note: If you need to lay the machine down to fit it into a vehicle, use soft materials, such as a moving blanket, to prevent any damage to its body. Always lay the machine down with the screen facing upward.

“Using this method to move your wall printer to the desired location will prevent damage to the belt motorized wheels, the top Y-Axis rail system, and the print head assembly.”
