4.3 Removing 3D Objects from the Bed
Once the ModelMaker has completed printing your 3D printed object follow these steps to
remove it from the Print Bed.
1.
Once the print is completed, wait for the Extruder to cool and then turn off your 3D Printer
2.
Using the supplied Scraper, carefully ‘wedge’ under one of the edges of the 3D object. Take
care to keep the Scraper flat with the bed to prevent damaging the Print Mat
3.
As one edge begins to lift, gently maneuver the Scraper forward to continue to ‘wedge’
between the 3D object and the Print Bed
4.
Once the 3D object has fully separated from the Print Bed, it is safe to remove
NOTE:
• Always take care when using the Scraper. Never use excessive force or scrape towards your hand.
Scrape away from the body and keep hands clear to prevent injury
• Always keep the Scraper as level as possible. Scraper can damage the print mat if not used
correctly
• Removing a 3D object, particularly one with a large surface size, can be a long process. Never rush
when removing a 3D printed object
TIP:
If you are persistently having trouble removing 3D printed objects, try the following:
• Use a layer of blue masking tape (designed to not leave behind residue) on the Print Bed. Be sure to
remove and replace after each print
• Check if the printing mat is damaged and replace if needed
• Replacement mats can be purchased at

4.4 Removing Filament
Follow these steps to remove filament.
NOTE:
You do not have to remove filament after each print, however
if you do not intend to print for long periods of time we recommend
removing and storing filament in a resealable air tight bag
1.
Turn on the 3D Printer with the Power Switch located at the back
of the Printer
2.
Push the Dial Button to access the Main Menu and navigate to
Quick Settings Change Filament Remove Filament
. The
Extruder will automatically raise and preheat; always wait until it
has fully preheated
3.
After the extruder has preheated, hold the Filament Clamp on the
top of the tower and push the filament so a small amount begins to extrude
4.
Once filament is extruding from the nozzle, while holding the filament clamp, quickly pull the
filament out of the extruder and tube
5.
Store the filament in a resealable bag to protect it from moisture
