④
Once the removal of foreign substances in the nozzle is done to some degree, wait a while in
the state where the temperature of the nozzle is raised, and repeat the cleaning of the foreign
substances as in
③
. This is to remove the foreign substances that have been melted down by
waiting until the foreign substances that had been adhered to the inner wall of the nozzle to melt
down.

4. Cautions regarding the Use of the nozzle Management Pin
Proper use of the nozzle management pin would be very helpful for the management of the nozzle.

goes through when the nozzle management pin is used, it may cause damage or pollution in the inside of
the Extruder, which may lead to the breakdown of the Extruder or make the clogging of the nozzle even
more severe. Since the breakdown of the Extruder due to the improper use of the nozzle management pin
as shown below would become a reason for the charged repair, be cautious.

If the nozzle management pin is excessively used, it may damage the device in the passage or
cause the clogging of the nozzle as the device gets cut off by the nozzle management pin and
falls into the nozzle. Since it is difficult to clear the clogging of the nozzle that has occurred in
such way, the entire nozzle needs to be replaced, and therefore, be cautious not to damage the
device inside.
