4.6 Refilling
CAUTION: Printhead may be very hot when changing material or refilling.
If you used the plunger:
1. Remove the printhead from the printhead mount. To prevent motor damage, use one hand to secure the
top of the printhead mount while sliding the printhead upward with the other hand.
2. Unscrew the top cap.
3. Gently insert the plunger retrieval tool into the cartridge and find the threaded hole in the plunger.
4. Turn the plunger retrieval tool clockwise at least five turns to screw into the plunger.
5. Firmly pull the plunger up to retrieve the plunger.
6. Let the printhead and metal cartridge cool down before loading more granulates to prevent material from
melting on the sides of the cartridge. Add thermoplastic granulate to the cartridge o refill. Reassemble
the printhead (Section 4.4).
7. Set the desired temperature of the printhead using the Utilities menu. Wait for the new material to melt.
Begin printing.
