AnyCubic Predator Filament Sensor Feed

I had planned to do my sensor repositioning a long time ago but I never got around to it. A particularly brittle roll of filament made me think that now was the right time, considering how difficult it was to feed the extruder with the filament sensor in the way.

There are several designs that help with the relocation of the filament sensor from the original location to inside the top of the printer.

Most designs provide a top casing that allows feeding the filament into the sensor from the top while the top cover is in place. These usually use the existing bowden connector to feed the filament through the top metal plate and requires the outlet of the filament sensor to be pushed down onto the connector.

The basic procedure for repositioning the sensor is to unscrew the filament sensor from the top plate, remove the wire connector and remount it on the reverse side of the top plate. The wire for the sensor needs to be moved back up into the top section so it can be reconnect
