Safety Precautions
•
Before printing, make sure the HEPA Filter is connected and functioning properly, as this reduces
the amount of VOC’s in the air. It is highly recommended that you use the HEPA filter with the
printers at all times.
•
Do not run this machine without knowing the function of every control key, button, knob, or
handle. Ask your supervisor or a qualified instructor for help when needed.
•
The 3ntr A2 / A4 generate high temperatures and hot moving parts. Allow the printer to cool
before reaching inside. The printer bed, printer surface plate, printed part, extruders/nozzles, and
other printer interior components can reach very high temperatures and cause serious burns.
•
Do not operate the printer with the printer door open or any of the windows or service access
panels removed.
•
Never reach inside of the 3ntr A2 / A4 while in operation.
•
Do not lean on the machine while it is running.
•
Always follow OSHA and workplace electrical safety guidelines when working with these products,
as there is a static current and users should be cautious.
•
Prevent slippage. Keep the work area dry and clean.
•
Protect your eyes. Wear approved safety glasses (with side shields) at all times.
•
Don't get caught in moving parts. Before operating this machine remove all jewelry including
watches and rings, neckties, and any loose-fitting clothing.
•
Keep your hair away from moving parts.
•
Remove all tools (wrenches, check keys, etc.) from the machine before you start.
•
The printer bed or extruder arm movement can cause a crush or pinch injury
•
Make sure to remove the build plate from the chamber before spraying alcohol to clean it. Not
doing so can cause fire hazards as IPA is highly inflammable and volatile.
•
Turn off printer before unplugging or re-plugging feeder/extruder assembly wires
•
Use E-stop button to stop printer before touching any failed parts (in case of print failure).
