Feed the Filament
1 Preheat the nozzle:
Choose "Prepare">"preheat PLA ( or ABS)" on LCD. Choose the nozzle
you want to preheat.
2 Feed the end of the spooled filament into the filament guide tube,
where it attaches to the extruder.
3 Continue to feed the filament in until it emerges from the nozzle.
Note: Please DO push the filament GENTLY
If filament attaches the nozzle, just keep them attached, stop pushing
hardly. Otherwise, the nozzle connection could be broken.
After the nozzle is preheated enough, the filament will flow out from
nozzle naturally.
4 Tighten the black screw to fix the filament with the clamp, not too
loose or too tight.
Caution:
1. Ensure the clamp is not too tight or too loose, otherwise, filament feeding will have problem causing
failure prints.
2. After feeding successfully, check if filament has twining and knotting to ensure filament feeding smoothly.
3. Lubricate the XY axis and sliding blocks to avoid motion stuck.
