Selecting gcode Select the printing file from: PRINT>GCODE . Printing will start as soon as the printing bed and the extruder reach the pre-set temperatures.
Ordinary and extraordinary maintanance 7 ORDINARY AND EXTRAORDINARY MAINTANANCE 7.1. General warnings The reading of this chapter assumes, in order to use the printer safely, the knowledge of the contents of paragraph 1.6 “General safety warnings”. Furthermore, the specific requirements for safe interaction with the printer, related to this chapter, are detailed in the following paragraphs.
Ordinary and extraordinary maintanance 7.2. Ordinary maintanance Periodic maintenance and correct use are essential factors to ensure the functionality, safe operation and durability of the printer. The maintenance interventions and the required interventions are carried out by the mechanical maintenance technician who must operate in compliance with the safety instructions contained in this manual.
Ordinary and extraordinary maintanance 7.2.5. Elastic ropes Check damages Check that the tensioning belts of the filament driver are not damaged. If they are, provide for their replacement. 7.2.6. Sliders Check plays Check that the arm sliders do not have any play between them and the sliding aisle, if it is present, contact the manufacturer 7.2.7.
Ordinary and extraordinary maintanance 7.2.8. Print bed cleaning The bed is cleaned with the machine switched off. It is necessary in cases of: • Flatness compromised • Dirt that prevents adhesion during printing • Aesthetic necessity To carry out this operation it is necessary to remove the top by unscrewing the three screws. Once removed, clean with water and detergents as needed.
Ordinary and extraordinary maintanance 7.3. Extraordinary maintenance ATTENTION: Extraordinary maintenance operations must be carried out by the Manufacturer’s Technicians or by maintenance personnel who have been instructed and authorized by the Manufacturer. Any of these operations not carried out by a manufacturer’s technician can cause irreversible damage to the machine or its parts and therefore renders the warranty null and void.
Ordinary and extraordinary maintanance 7.3.1. Cartridge removal The cartridge change is a mechanical operation that allows you to change the cartridge with another in the same extruder. Thanks to the change of the cartridge it is possible to characterize the extruder with nozzles of different diameters and rods for high temperatures.
Ordinary and extraordinary maintanance 7.3.2. Manual leveling Manual leveling is a command that allows you to adjust the planarity of the plane. Based on the three-point principle, the machine moves the tool to the vertices of an equilateral triangle proportional to the plane. At each point, by rotating a screw, the distance between the tool and the plane is adjusted.
