2 Safety
To safely operate the FELIXprinter, we advise that you keep the following safety recommendations in mind:
General safety
Keep children under the age of 14 out of reach of the FELIXprinter.
FELIXprinters are only suitable for professional use.
Considerations when printer is in operation.
Don't leave the printer unattended, before making sure the first layer is printed properly
Don't lean on the printer.
Be careful with long hair and wide clothes.
Don't transport the printer.
Make sure all moving parts can move without any obstructions.
Don't remove any objects from the hot plate while printing
Caution with any moving parts that move in the X, Y and Z direction. Moving parts can have a
pinching hazard.
Printer placement
Place the FELIXprinter on a stable table/desk or something with a similar height.
Place the printer on a height where children cannot reach it.
Use the FELIXprinter in a dry environment at room temperature
Electronic safety
Only use the power supplies and cables supplied by FELIXprinters.
Always turn off and unplug the printer before performing maintenance or modifications.
The power supply meets all CE mark regulations and is protected against short-circuit,
overload, over voltage and over temperature.
Ventilate
Good ventilation while printing is advised. When printing ABS, small concentrations of
styrene vapor can be released. This can (in some cases) cause headaches, fatigue, dizziness,
confusion, drowsiness, malaise, difficulty in concentrating, and a feeling of intoxication.
We recommend using filament types shown on the FELIXprinters website. Examples PLA,
PETG, ABS, Glassbend etc. Other types may be toxic; please follow instructions from the
filament supplier.
Caution with heater elements
There is a potential risk of burn, as the print head can reach temperatures of up to 275°C
and the heated bed of up to 105°C.
Don't place objects on the heated bed, not even when the printer is turned off.
Always let the printer cool down for at least 10 minutes before doing maintenance or
modifications.
