Notes 1. Do not use the Printer in any way other than described herein to avoid personal injury or property damage. 2. Do not place the Printer near flammables, explosives or heat sources. It is best to place it in a well- ventilated, low-dust environment. 3. Do not expose the Printer to violent vibration or any unstable environment. This will cause poor print quality. 4. The filaments recommended by the manufacturer are preferred as to avoid clogging in the hot end and/or Printer damage. 5. Do not use any other power cable than the one supplied. Use a grounded three-prong power outlet. 6. Do not touch the nozzle or hot bed during printing. Keep hands away from machine while in use to avoid burns or personal injury. 7. Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when operating the Printer. These loose articles can become caught in moving parts and cause personal injury or Printer damage. 8. Clean off filament from the nozzle tip with the provided pliers before the nozzle cools. Do not touch the nozzle directly. This can cause personal injury. 9. Clean the Printer frequently. With the machine powered off, clean the printer body with a dry cloth to remove dust, adhered printing materials and foreign objects on guide rails. Use glass cleaner or isopropyl Alcohol to clean the print surface before every print for consistent results. 10. Children under 10 years of age should not use the Printer without supervision.
