Frequently Asked Questions
How to unclog the nozzle?
Method 1: Click [Load] and heat the nozzle to the printing temperature of the used
filament. After heating, remove the filament guide tube, and check if the filament is bent
or filament tip is not smooth. If so, trim and insert the guide tube and filament into the
nozzle, then click [Load] and check.
Method 2: If Method 1 doesn't work, use the unclogging pin tool.
Method 3: If Method 2 doesn't work, please replace the nozzle.
How to replace the nozzle?
Note: Please power off the printer before replacing to nozzle!
First, remove the filament guide tube and cut the filament. Press the left and right
buckles and remove the nozzle. Trim the filament along the nozzle top. Insert the new
nozzle into the extruder and you can hear a "click" sound indicating the buckle position
has changed. Ensure that the nozzle slot aligns flush with the bottom of the extruder.
Note: If you have trouble aligning the nozzle, you can press the buckles during
installation or remove the front cover of the extruder (grab the lower part of the front
cover with your hand and lift it upward slightly) to check the position.
Whether it is installed in place is judged as follows:
Ensure the nozzle is pressed to the bottom firmly during installation.
•
Check if it is properly installed:
•
o Check the red buckle positions on the left and right.
o Check if the nozzle slot is flush with the bottom of the extruder (if your
view is obstructed, you can remove the front cover of the extruder to
observe).
Power up the printer, click the filament button to enter the loading interface, and follow
the on-screen instructions to complete filament loading. Filament coming out of the new
nozzle smoothly indicates a successful nozzle replacement.
Is levelling required after nozzle replacement?
Yes. It is recommended to perform automatic levelling to ensure high print quality as
slight errors may occur during nozzle installation. The equipment defaults to the
levelling operation before each print.
