I have installed my Mk4 on my Creality K1. When trying to feed the filament, I've noticed that after it loads it doesn't seem to disengage the extruder in the 3dChameleon which is making the extruder in K1 struggle to pull the filament. Am I missing something? I'm fairly new to all of this and am still trying to figure out what I'm doing.

Two things to check for... A misalignment of selector cam or the bearings on it can cause this.
A lot of times, this can happen because the motors are plugged into the incorrect controller port which can over drive the cam the wrong way and damage it. This is easy to fix, just download the new cam from our Mk4 Upgrade page on Printables.
The second one is also related to it, but easier to fix... Make sure the two bearings on the cam are pushed all the way onto the cam so they align with the C parts (the ones with the oval openings) of the unit.
