WEAR GLOVES: ALWAYS WEAR 100% NITRILE GLOVES WHENEVER HANDLING A PRINTER COMPONENT
THAT HAS BEEN IN CONTACT WITH LIQUID MATERIAL, EVEN IF YOU HAVE CLEANED THE COMPONENT.
IF THE COMPONENT MUST BE HANDLED WITHOUT GLOVES, YOU MUST FIRST PLACE IT IN A UV-
CURING OVEN FOR THE TIME SPECIFIED FOR THE MATERIAL IT HAS BEEN IN CONTACT WITH.
Clean Print Platform
You must clean the print platform after each use.
1. Use a putty knife or something similar to scrape away the excess
cured print material on the print platform.
2. If a greasy residue still exists, pour recommended solvent onto a
nonabrasive cloth and gently clean the print platform until the
residue is removed.
3. Place the print platform into an ultrasonic bath, if available, with
recommended
rinse tanks included with your printer.
4. Completely dry the platform of any solvent, using any of the same
techniques used to dry a printed
Pigmentation on the Print Platform
If you use any print materials with pigmentation in them, you may observe that they slowly stain the print platform
after repeated use. This is okay and has not been shown in testing to adversely affect the build quality of future
parts, even when using different materials. If you wish to remove as much of the pigmentation as possible, the best
way to do this is to soak the platform in IPA overnight. This might not remove all pigmentation.
Remove and Clean Print Tray
You must remove the print tray periodically to clean it and inspect it for damage.
NOTE: The elevator must be at its upper limit and the print platform must not be in the printer during this
procedure. This will ensure that: 1. The elevator arm are out of the way; and, 2. No material drips from the
print platform onto the glass print base.
1. Wearing nitrile gloves, release all four toggle case locks
that connect the print tray to the chassis.

solvent. Or you may manually clean the platform in the
part.
