Important Safety Information
General Safety Guidelines
Caution:
The Creator X generates high temperatures and includes moving parts that can cause
injury. Never reach inside The Creator X while it is in operation, and allow time for The Creator
X to cool down after operation.
•
The Creator X is very sensitive to static electricity, so make sure you contact a
grounded object before operating the machine.
•
Before repairing or making any alterations to the Creator X it is essential that the
machine is turned off and the power cord is unplugged.
•
The Creator X operates at very high temperatures; allow the nozzle, the extruded
plastic and heating plate to cool before touching.
•
Some plastic filaments may give off a little odor when heated, because of this, the
machine should always be set up in a well-‐ventilated area.
•
Do not wear gloves when operating or repairing, as entanglement may occur and
cause injury.
•
Do not leave the machine unattended when in operation.
Please always check power setting before plugging in!
FlashForge sets the power supply to 230V before leaving the factory.
If voltage in your
location is between 90V to 132V, please switch the power setting from 230V to 115V before
you plug in. You will find the power source at the bottom of The Creator X.
The following photos show the location of voltage selector switch:
