ALWAYS 3DOODLE IN A WELL VENTILATED SPACE
USING YOUR 3DOODLER 2.0
Step 1:
Connect your 3Doodler 2.0 to the power adapter
Connect the power adapter to the back of the 3Doodler and plug it
into a power source.
Step 2:
Turn on the pen and select
your plastic/filament
Turn the pen on by selecting the correct
heating temperature for the type of
plastic/filament you are using. Set the
slide switch to HI (“High”) for high
temperature plastics/filaments like ABS or
FLEXY, or LO (“Low”) for low temperature
plastics/filaments like PLA or WOOD.
BLUE = HI (”HIGH”)
(heating range between 230°C and
240°C; or 446°F and 464°F)
GREEN = LO (”LOW”) PLA
(heating range between
190°C and 200°C; or 374°F and 392°F)
Step 3:
Allow your 3Doodler to heat up before loading
plastic/filament
The 3Doodler takes approximately 1.5 minutes to heat up. During
that time the LED indicator will be
RED
and it will not be possible to
use the pen. Once the correct melting temperature is reached and
the pen is ready, the LED indicator will change to
BLUE
(HI) or
GREEN
(LO).
Step 8:
Power down
To safely turn the pen off, move the sliding switch to the OFF
position . Allow the pen to cool completely before storing.
Otherwise, please press one of the
extrusion buttons and wait for the
3Doodler to heat up again.
2.
Hold down
BOTH
the
FAST
(3) and
SLOW
(4) extrusion buttons at the
same time. The LED indicator (5) will
flash.
3.
When the plastic/filament stops
moving in reverse you may gently
take it out from the back of the pen .

Step 4:
Load the pen
Load the plastic/filament into the plastic loader at the back of
the pen, feeding it down the length of the 3Doodler until you feel it
gripped by the gears inside the pen.
NOTE:
After 5 minutes of inactivity the 3Doodler’s heating
system will automatically power down. You will need to
press one of the buttons OR toggle the power switch off
and then on again to continue use.
Note: For those of you who are curious, the distance between
the gearbox and the nozzle is under an inch.
NOTE:
Upon resumption of continuous flow, the extrusion
speed will change depending on which extrusion button
(FAST or SLOW) you used to pause the flow. The 10
minutes of continuous flow will restart after pausing.
NOTE:
Our 3Doodler is a
sturdy and awesome tool, but
like any mechanical device it
needs a break now and then.
We suggest giving it (and
yourself) some downtime after
2 hours of continuous use (just
a 30 minute break or so).
NOTE:
If you do not feel the plastic/filament being gripped
by the gears inside the pen, please give it a gentle
clockwise twist while pushing it down the shaft of the
3Doodler.
Note: If you have also purchased the 3Doodler JetPack
TM
you
can also connect this to the back of the 3Doodler as a power
source.
HI (“High”) = BLUE LED
indicator
LO (“Low”) = GREEN LED
indicator
Step 5:
Extrude/select your speed
Press and hold the button for the desired
extrusion speed (
FAST (3)
or
SLOW (4)
)
and wait for the heated material to
emerge from the pen tip. Releasing the
chosen speed button will cause the pen
to stop extruding the heated material.
If the pen stops and the
RED
LED
appears again, simply wait a moment for

Step 7:
Unloading/reversing your plastic/filament
To unload the plastic:
1.
Ensure that the device is still at the correct temperature required
for the type of plastic/filament being used:
Step 6:
Double Click for Continuous Flow
PRO-TIP:
Optimize your melt
temperature. Using the mini-screw
driver , tweak your 3Doodler’s melt
tempe/- 5°C, for minor flow
adjustments and expertly consistent
Doodles. To do this, insert the mini
screw driver into the potted
Temperature Adjuster on the control
panel.
Turn the mini screw driver
clockwise to increase the melt
temperature, or anti-clockwise to
decrease the melt temperature.
If the plastic/filament is not extruding, it may be because the
existing plastic/filament (A) is too short or has fed beyond the
gearbox, and you will not be able to reverse it. Please use a new
strand of plastic/filament (B) or the Cleaning Tool to feed the
remaining plastic/filament through the pen. In order to feed the
Cleaning Tool past the gear system you will need to gently twist it
counter clockwise until you feel it move past the gears.

N O T I C E
SNIP THOSE ENDS!
After removing a strand/filament from the
3Doodler, cut and remove any partially
melted material at the end of your strand
before re-feeding it into the 3Doodler. This
will reduce blockages or clogging issues.
DO NOT pull plastic/filament from the back
of the 3Doodler. This will result in damage to
your pen and will void your warranty. If you
wish to reverse your plastic/filament, please
follow the instructions on page [4].

•
The 3Doodler should only be used with
3Doodler approved filaments or materials.
Misuse of your 3Doodler and/or use of
non-approved plastics, filaments or other
materials may result in damage to your pen
or injury to you, and will void your warranty.
Injuries to the user may include, but are not
limited to, harm sustained from inhaling
substances that are not suitable for heating;
or burns from flammable materials used in
the 3Doodler.
WARNING: DO NOT use the 3Doodler near
bathtubs, showers, basins or other vessels
containing water. This could result the in
death due to electric shock.
When switching from lower temperature
plastic/filament (such as PLA or WOOD) to
higher temperature plastic/filament (such as
ABS or FLEXY), the presence of any
residual plastic/filament in the pen’s heating
chamber may cause a slight amount of
smoke to emit from the pen. This is due to
the application of a higher melting
temperature being applied to lower melting
temperature materials.
