BEFORE YOU BUILD
1. Ensure an adequate amount of filament is
loaded (see page 25).
TIP: You can determine whether you have
enough filament to complete your object
before building by comparing the length of
filament needed as displayed by Dremel
Digilab 3D Slicer to the length of filament
on spool indicated by the length gauge.
If 3D40 runs out of filament during a build,
it will pause until more filament is added.
2. Ensure build tape is applied, build plate is
level and clear of objects.
BUILDING FROM
ON-PRINTER STORAGE
1. On the main menu tap "Build".
2. On the build menu tap the printer icon.

(Use arrows to scroll through pages)
Building
4. In the model detail page tap "Build" to
begin building process.
5. Your 3D40 will first align the extruder and
build platform to their zero positions then
the level sensor will lightly touch the build
plate to complete alignment. Your extruder
tip will begin to heat which may take a few
minutes. Once the proper temperature is
reached your model will begin to build.
6. Once your object is finished your 3D40 will
automatically align the extruder and build
platform to their calibration positions and
cool the extruder tip.
7. Wait until the touch screen indicates that
the extruder is "cool" to remove your
object. See section for removing object
from build plate below for object removal
instructions.
