(2) Install the filament spool to the spool holder. As shown
in
Fig.8,
pass the filament
through the filament sensor. Then, as shown in
Fig. 9
, insert the filament into the
extruder and then into the Teflon tubing (but not fully into the hotend yet).
When insert the filament to the sensor and extruder, it is suggested to cut off the bent
tip of the filament, and rotate the angle if feels any resistance at the sensor or extruder.
The filament sensor can be hooked on the lower beam of the spool holder.
It is important to make sure there is no tied or tangle on the spool.
