Preventative Maintenance
To keep the printer in proper working order, it is necessary to perform certain procedures for preventative
maintenance, procedures which you can perform and do not need to be performed by a certi ed 3D Systems eld
engineer. The following section describes the most up-to-date preventative maintenance procedures. Any service
procedures outside the scope of this document would need to be performed by your authorized print-material
provider.
CAUTION: Always shut down the printer before performing any preventative maintenance.
NOTE: 3D Systems reserves the right to periodically update this document with new procedures, as
needed. Please refer back to the printer Preventative Maintenance and Troubleshooting Guide on
http://support.3dsystems.com for the most-up-to-date preventative maintenance procedures.

base breaks, you will need to replace it before performing any future builds. To prevent such events:
1. Take the glass print base out of the printer and clean
it with recommended solvent and a nonabrasive cloth
periodically,

Clear materials or tiny drops might not be noticed
unless the glass is taken out and cleaned.
