Heat cartridge
Check whether the heat cartridge is sufficiently centred in the heat block. In the pictures below
you can see a heat cartridge that is centred and one that is not.
It is important that the heat cartridge is centred properly so that the heat is distributed equally
over the filament and that the thermistor reads the correct temperatures, preventing too cold
extrusion which can cause clogging.
If you see that the heat cartridge is too far outside the block, please loosen the index bolt that
holds it and adjust the position.
Correct: Centred
Nozzles
Check if the nozzles are still hot after the extruder stops and if they have the correct
temperature.
Do not check this with your bare hands, the nozzles can be very hot!
the software for the current temperature. If the nozzle heating is somehow turned off or a
different temperature was set, this will result in clogging due to cold extrusion. It is important to
check if the software is set at the correct temperature.
Driver gear
Check if the driver gear is tightened to its motor correctly. If the driver gear is not tightened
correctly, the motor will deliver power but the driver gear won't spin. If this is the case, please
tighten the screw that is indicated on the picture below.
Wrong: Not centred
