2. Tilt the tray handle side down over a trash bin and empty out all the tiny remains of past
projects that have fallen through the metal grid. If necessary, turn the tray upside down
and shake out anything that's left. Use cotton swabs to gently remove bits that get
caught. Be careful not to bend the grid.
3. Wipe the metal floor of the Glowforge unit with a soft cloth to sweep away any bits.
4. Pay special attention that the four dimples where
the crumb tray sits are clean. If anything sits in
those dimples, the Glowforge printer may not be
able to focus correctly, and the camera will be
out of alignment.
5. Return the crumb tray to the original location,
sliding it in horizontally. Be careful not to contact
the printer head or the rails. When it is in place,
the tray's four feet will drop into the small
dimples and it will no longer slide.
Things that need wiping
After every 40 hours of printing, use ZEISS lens cleaning wipes (available on Amazon and many
other stores) to clean the cameras, laser lens, and windows. This will keep the unit working
properly and prevent permanent damage to your unit.
1. Turn off your Glowforge. Grasp the printer head as
shown, and pull gently up and back to disengage
the magnets and remove it.
