CAUTION
The basin should only be removed from the printer after the build platform
has been removed, otherwise drips from the build platform can damage the
LCD causing permanent damage.
CAUTION
The basin-bottom film is very easy to damage using scraper, tools or
fingernails.
CAUTION
Do not remove cured resin from basin using scraper. Peel off any cured
material gently by hand.
CAUTION
Always use a microfibre cloth to wipe and dry the Teflon film. Do not use
paper towels.
Have a flat stable surface ready to place the basin before removal from the
printer.
1. Loosen the basin retaining screws.
2. Lift out the basin.
CAUTION
Do not leave resin in the printer after printing.
NOTE
Uncured resin can be reused if left in the basin. For instructions on how
to store the surplus resin, see section "Resin handling notes" on page
13.
3. After emptying, using IPA or ethanol clean the basin every time you
finish printing.
4. Wipe the basin clean with a microfibre cloth, dry with compressed air to
ensure no paper fibres remain. Otherwise rinse thoroughly in IPA /
ethanol (96%) bath.
NOTE
Dry the basin thoroughly to ensure that no IPA / ethanol (96%) remains
on the surfaces, as this can interfere with the print.
5. Use only solvents that leave no residue. When handling the basin ensure
no sharp objects touch the print film surface as this has a delicate
surface coating.
CAUTION
If the surface becomes damaged, printing liquids might get onto the LCD
screen damaging it.
CAUTION
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
