FREE PRINTABLE OWNER RESOURCE
Build a Known-Good Record for Your Bitaxe in About 20 Minutes
The Bitaxe Owner’s Maintenance and Troubleshooting Pack walks you through the important AxeOS readings, helps you recognize meaningful changes, and gives you a support-ready troubleshooting record for when something goes wrong.
In about 20 minutes, you can establish a known-good snapshot for your own miner, choose whether its current state is normal, needs observation, requires investigation, or should be stopped, and record evidence that will make future troubleshooting faster. It does not promise mining income or replace the instructions for your exact hardware.
Printable PDF · approximately 20 pages · designed for Letter and usable on A4

- A guided 20-minute Bitaxe health audit with a tangible known-good snapshot

- A copyable support-request template and screenshot redaction guide
- A support-routing guide linking the seller/vendor path, OSMU Forum, OSMU Discord, ESP-Miner Discussions, and the appropriate use of GitHub Issues

- Three compact symptom-reference pages covering power, startup, connectivity, mining, heat, fan, and post-update trouble
- A streamlined one-change-at-a-time worksheet that references your baseline instead of repeating it

Finish with something useful—not another empty checklist
Every Bitaxe setup is a little different. By the end of the guided audit, you will have a dated baseline for your own model, firmware, cooling, power supply, network, and room conditions; a decision state; and a record you can compare or summarize for support later.
The free Bitaxe material stays free
Tartanleaf’s existing Bitaxe articles and Community Updates remain available without signup. This pack adds a printable workflow and record sheets; it does not move those resources behind an email form.
Who made it
Greg Weir is the founder of Tartanleaf.com Inc. and the author of Bitcoin Mining with Bitaxe, a practical first-edition guide available in paperback and Kindle. Tartanleaf focuses on clear technical guidance, careful testing, and claims that can be checked.
Questions
Is this the book?
No. The pack is a practical owner resource and remains useful on its own. One worked example is newly written and adapted for the pack but based on material and the connected-system approach in Bitcoin Mining with Bitaxe; it is not a direct quotation or book excerpt. The longer first-edition guide is available separately in paperback and Kindle.
Do I need to subscribe to read Tartanleaf’s Bitaxe articles?
No. Existing articles and Community Updates remain freely accessible. The signup is for delivery of this printable pack and the Bitaxe emails described beside the form.
Will this tell me which settings guarantee the best result?
No. Hardware revisions and operating conditions differ, and Bitcoin mining outcomes are uncertain. The pack helps you observe, document, test cautiously, and recover.
Who provides support for a Bitaxe?
It depends on the seller and the issue. A seller may handle an order, return, warranty, supplied accessory, or suspected purchased-hardware defect according to its policy. Because Bitaxe is an open-source ecosystem, setup, AxeOS, firmware, pool, tuning, monitoring, and troubleshooting help is often provided publicly by community members. The pack explains where to ask and what evidence to include.
