Id love to know how you got the first layer to stick, I couldn't get my Cr-30 to print anything more then spaghetti.
At the beginning I had several issues. If I remember correctly first I has to level the front part, then mark the distance with a wedge and have that same distance on the back.
For this it is important that when you're adjusting the Y0 check on both edges and in the middle. It should be the same height overall
Once it's leveled you need to adjust the Y offset until it sticks, for this you can print a zigzag pattern and it should stick equally well everywhere.
I remember I had saved some videos that explain that let me find them. Also the discord community is helpful for this particular printer
