7.1.1 Clean-Replace the Catch Trays

Remove and Clean a Catch Tray
This procedure assumes you have either shut down or disabled the Printer.
Once per week, remove the catch tray and clean it of dust or any drops of material with a clean-room wipe and IPA as described
below.
If there has been a significant leak from the resin tray, replace the resin tray and
new resin tray.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to use a catch tray after it has captured a significant spill of material. It can be
difficult to clean the glass well enough to ensure perfect transmission of the optical radiation to ensure good
print quality. Instead, replace the catch tray. Do not attempt to clean the catch tray while it is still inside
the Printer. The cleaning methods discussed below could cause damage to Printer components if attempted
inside the unit.
ALWAYS WEAR 100% NITRILE GLOVES WHEN HANDLING THE CATCH TRAY, EVEN IF IT APPEARS THERE IS NO material
ON THE OUTSIDE OF IT. Getting fingerprints or other debris on the catch-tray GLASS can degrade print quality.
Remove/Hold the tray with both hands and upright to prevent spilling.
1. Use a 4mm Allen key to remove the two screws on the
Catch-Tray Retention Plate in the upper build chamber.
Remove the chassis plate and set it aside with the screws.
1. Carefully pull the catch tray toward you until you feel it
come out of place, and then pull it out of the machine.
