The build platform jig is designed to stabilize the build platform for the secure removal of
prints. Secure the build platform jig to the edge of your work surface by tightening the jig screw
clamps underneath the work surface. The build platform jig can also be secured to the work
surface using the two screw holes on the front of the jig. Ensure that there is enough space
in front of the jig for the build platform.

4.12.1
Preparing the printer for transportation
To prepare the printer:
1. Always remove the build platform, resin tank, and resin cartridges before moving or
packaging the printer.
2. Wipe residual resin from the build platform and store the platform away from sunlight.
Do not ship the printer with any resin inside. Resin left inside the machine can leak
during transit, which may result in additional fees or void the warranty. Do not ship the
printer with the resin tank, resin cartridges, or build platform inserted into the printer.
Consumables left inside the machine can become loose during transit and damage
sensitive components, which may result in additional fees or void the warranty.
3. Store the resin tank in the tank case.
4. Store the resin cartridges with the vent caps pressed closed and the valve covers installed.
When shipping a printer to Formlabs or a certified service provider for replacement
or repair, the build platform, resin tank, resin cartridges, power and USB cables,
and other accessories should not be shipped and will not be returned after service.
Original packaging is required for warranty service. Contact Formlabs Support or a
certified service provider for unique guidance on shipping requirements.
