As you remove ExtrusionBot from the box there will be some pieces of tape guarding the spool motor and maintaining the rubber spool holder in place. - Page 9 The fan will also need to be rotated down about 45° or to your own preferred angle. 90° **For best results during the extruding process please do not install the nozzle after reading the “Operating ExtrusionBot” section of this manual. ** Out of the Box (continued)

Page 12: Switch Functions
This switch powers the Auger Motor Powering On Before powering ExtrusionBot on, check to make sure that all 3 of the switches are in the off position. Then plug the cord into the wall, insert the included key and turn clockwise. The red main power light should now be illuminated and the P.I.D should begin its startup processes. - Page 13 ** WE SUGGEST FIRST TO RUN A FEW FEET OF YOUR MEDIA THROUGH THE EXTRUSIONBOT BEFORE INSTALLING THE NOZZLE; THIS WILL HELP REMOVE ANY RESIDUAL OILS OR DEBRIS THAT MAY BE LEFT OVER FROM THE MACHINING PROCESS.

This section will show how to setup the alarm so that the number typed into the alarm is the safe band for ExtrusionBot to operate at. - Page 15 4.

Then turn on the auger motor and run some material out of the Extrusionbot without the nozzle installed. Re install the nozzle, allow adequate time for the nozzle to come up to the correct temperature and now turn on the auger motor.
