CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Clean the 3D40's exterior with a lint free
cloth. Clear the outer surfaces of any debris
that is visible.
To avoid damaging your Dremel 3D40 do not
use water, chemicals or other cleaners on
the 3D40.
CLEANING THE EXTRUDER TIP
Use extra care not to
damage the extruder tip
when clearing debris. Dremel 3D40 will not
work properly with damaged extruder tip and
will require replacement.
Do not touch the
extruder tip during
Dremel 3D40 operation or until it has
cooled down to 60°C (140°F). Contact with
the extruder tip during or after operation
before tip has cooled may result in personal
injury.
Using small needle nose pliers, pull away
any plastic debris from the extruder tip.
If the debris is stubborn, the extruder may
need to be heated.
CLEANING THE TOUCH SCREEN
Wipe the touch screen with the soft, lint-free
cloth. Do not spray cleaners on the touch
screen.
