6. Install Vents
It would help if you placed the enclosure over the 3D printer at this stage of assembly.
The air vents for the Ender 3 S1 model are inserted outside and attached using M4
12mm screws. This will bring cold air to the air intake vent of the case, cooling the
electronics inside. Keeping the fan on the back panel running to help draw air through
the case’s vents and outside is essential, especially when printing PLA and PETG.
If you forget to turn on the fan when printing PLA, your printer will probably clog.
If that happens, use a 3D printer needle (available in many places online) to remove the
clog. This technique is easy and works most of the time.
It is acceptable to turn o
ff
the fan when printing ABS or ASA to bring the temperature
into the ideal range, but be sure to turn the fan back on when you’re finished,
especially if you are venting or filtering the air to remove VOCs.
Note that the lid fits right into the vent slots, helping to form a seal. Slide the 3D printer
towards the front up against the vent.
