LOADING THE FILAMENT (continued)
1
Detach the filament guide tube
Pull here
Remove the the filament guide tube
from the insert hole in the top of the
extruder.
Feed the filament through the guide tube
2
Make sure that the filament spool feeds
toward the guide tube holder (from
the bottom up) so that the filament
keeps it's course. This way you avoid
any unnecessary bending that would
occur if the filament was to be fed from
the top. Use a pair of scissors, make
sure that you cut a clean edge before
insering the filament into the guide
tube. Feed the Filament all the way
through the guide tube until it comes
out the other end.
NOTE: Make double-sure that you first cut a clean edge to the filament before pushing it through
the guide tube. This will avoid jams.
