Inspect the tip wipe assembly
After each build you should inspect the tip wipe assembly to make sure there is no material build up
or wear. If there is material build up or wear, clean the tip wipe assembly. Material build up on the
tip wipe assembly can cause part quality issues. See
Inspect the tip shrouds
After each build you should inspect the tip shrouds for damage or material build up. If there is
material build up remove it as needed. If the material will not break free or there is damage to the
tip shield, replace the tip shield. See
