Solved Installing E3D V6 question

Hey guys, so i got my new e3D v6 in and i have all the wiring done. I'm trying to screw it in now but as I'm tightening it I see it start tilting towards the direction of the screws. What should I do to ensure that it screws in straight?

 

Put each screw in a little bit at a time.

Also make sure it is seated all the way up in the carriage. When in doubt disassemble farther so you are just dealing with the carriage on your work bench.

 

Got it in and it prints like a charm, though its a teeny tiny bit crooked, you can barely tell unless you're looking at it close up.

 

Does the E3D fit into the printer without any modifications to the extruder or did you have to make a new extruder?

 

Thanks! That is great!

 

That happens to me as well. My solution is to just hold on to the hotend and hold it straight while tightening the screws. Problem solved
