Maintenance
Cut off a small piece of sponge or ball up a piece of tissue.
Insert this into the feeder end of the Bowden tube and push it all the way through the tube with a length of the
filament.
Place the tube back in the printer, watch the correct sides of the tube on the correct spots in the printer/print
head. (slightly chamfered outside is the print head side of the tube)

Clean the slide wheels
The linear slide of the printer needs to be clean all time. For an optimal print result clean the linear rails by
following these steps:
Lower the print head by moving the printer to the maintenance location.
Press Macro > Maintenance
Take a dry cloth/towel to manually clean the linear slide.
Optional: You can use some thin grease/oil (very lightly) to lubricate the linear rails
