 	* The printer has heated surfaces that can reach temperature up to 50 degrees Celsius. Never touch these surfaces when using the heating function. Allow things to cool before opening, touching the printer \\
 	* Always ensure that equipment is correctly mounted before use. Improperly mounted print beds and cables can be dangerous. If any equipment appears damaged, turn off the printer, unplug all connections and contact CELLINK. \\
+	* Make sure the build platform is not secure when preparing it for your print. As the build platform is lowered to your substrate damage might occur if the build platform is rigidity fixed to the stage.

 ===== Operating Procedures =====
+To load your object to the printer you will need to export the your object as an STL file onto a USB drive and load it to the printer by navigating to your folder and uploading it onto the file's tab.
-Insert Text Here!
+The touch screen of the printer is layout out as a series of tabs from left to right. \\
-----
+**File tab**\\
+click Show USB stick to browse your file drive to upload it to the printer. Once you find your object select it and load it to the Models in library folder in the printer. To select your part navigate to your file name and click on it
-===== Reference Documentation =====
+**Prepare tab**\\
+Under this tab set the build platform and slice your object. You have two options for the layer thickness. Standard res witch is 100 µm per layer and High res witch is 50 µm. Once you select your layer thickness you can slice your object by clicking on Slice.
+Prior to starting the print you need to bring the build platform down to your substrate to make sure the build platform is parallel to your substrate (PDMS or FEP film). Warning! Once you click Prepare the build platform will go down several centimeters and can damage the printer if anything is directly under it. Make sure all the adjustments screws for the build platform are loosen prior to clicking Prepare\\
