Replacing the filament
The filament replacement process is done by selecting the relevant "Change
filament" menu, which can be found within the "Print" or "Quick settings" menu
commands. By selecting it you will see the following options: "Change filament",
"Load" and "Unload". "Change filament" makes all the "Unload" and "Load"
commands in the above order in case you want to change your existing filament
spool. With the “Load” option, you can load the filament if there is none, and with
the "Unload" option you can remove the existing filament.
The “Change filament” steps are as follows:
1.
Select the "change filament" in the main and secondary menus and wait
until the temperature reaches the desired level. Then the material inside the
head will be removed. The unload of the filament is completed with a single
sound.
2.
Pull the filament by turning the filament spool until it is completely
removed from the teflon tube.
3.
Install a new filament spool, cut diagonally the filament and pass it from
the teflon tube until it reaches its end.
4.
Press the LCD’s knob once, the sound stops. At the same time, push the
material until you feel the printer motor pulls it.
5.
Wait until you see material extruding from the nozzle and press the button
to complete the “filament change” step. The material will stop extruding from the
nozzle. Then the “filament change” will be completed. A short tone will be sound.
