3.
Adjust filament clamping range. The extruder arm pushes filament onto the extruder drive wheel. When using flexible
filaments it might be that the filament is squashed too much causing a lot of friction and eventually it buckles and clogs the
extrusion.
Loading flexible filament.
It is recommended to load filament via the interface at the printer.
Cut the end of the filament in a skew manner. The extruder gears might find it difficult to get grip onto the first part of the flexible
filament which is fed into the extruder.
1.
Extrude filament until the first drip comes out. Then slowly extrude more piece by piece. Do not extrude in a continuous feed at
high speed as that will increase chances of buckling.
2.
Optional: Lower the overall print speed. Via the display unit take the following steps after starting the print. Press the rotary
button. Then scroll down to Speed Mul. And lower it to 50%. Then by trial and error increase the speed.
