1.1 How to use this manual
This User Manual is divided into four sections which cover the Introduction, Overview, Operation,
and Troubleshooting. Please study this manual carefully before installation, and use the printer
according to these instructions. Keep this manual handy and refer to it when necessary.
1.2 Precautions
Please read this section carefully before using the printer.
1.2.1 Safety
The printer can only be used with the power adapters supplied by this company, or the product
may be damaged, with a risk of fire.
To avoid burning, or model deformation, do not touch the model, nozzle, or the platform by hand,
or any other part of the body, while the printer is working or immediately after it has finished
printing.
Protective glasses should always be worn when removing support material, especially PLA.
The brown sections of the currently supplied gloves melt at around 200 degrees, therefore please
do not hold the extruder block with the gloves.
There is a slight smell from ABS when it is being extruded. The smell is, however, not too un-
pleasant. Operate in a well ventilated room but draught free. Draughts can affect warping of ABS
prints. When ABS is burnt is releases toxic fumes.
Do not use ABS plastic or its printed parts near any kind of heat source, flames, fireworks, candles,
incense, light bulbs, rockets etc. ABS will catch fire and burn a thick black smoke.
Always have adult supervision when children are present. Please keep all small printed parts away
from young children, choking hazards! There are several safety issues, small tools, sharp tools and
HOT objects and most parts used in connection with the 3D Printer. Tie back long hair and loose
clothing. Keep fingers away from moving parts.
Tools and parts should be stored at a suitable height away from small children.
Tools should be used in conjunction with safety gloves and glasses.
