Operation
The air extraction system features a fused IEC inlet for the power cable, as well as a main
power switch.
Setting the Desired Airflow
The air extraction system features a manual flow control that enables the user to adjust the
required airflow rate. Over time, as the filters become restricted, the user should manually
increase the motor speed to maintain the correct flow rate, and compensate for any loss in
performance.
To adjust the airflow:
Press
to increase airflow and press
to decrease airflow. The level of airflow is
indicated on the vertical row of six blue LEDs. As you increase the airflow, more blue LEDs
light.

The vent out of the printing area should be as close as possible to the printing
area without interfering with the 3D printing process, to ensure effective fume
extraction.
The system and all connecting tubes must be fully installed and connected before the
airflow is set.
When first installing the system, set the airflow on the second LED from the bottom.
