Can’t load MakerBot
PLA Filament into
the extruder
Make a fresh cut at the end of the MakerBot PLA Filament.
Cut the MakerBot PLA Filament at an angle — a narrow tip
will help with loading.
Use more force when pushing the MakerBot PLA Filament
into the extruder. Grasp the Filament firmly and push it into
the middle of the hole on top of the extruder. To increase
your grip, you can hold the Filament with a pair of pliers.
Ensure that you insert the MakerBot PLA Filament straight
down into the extruder, not diagonally.
After you feel the motor grab the Filament, continue to
maintain pressure on the Filament for another five seconds.

noise when loading

Try cleaning the drive gear as explained in the Maintenance
section of this chapter. If that doesn’t help, adjust the
plunger, also as explained in this chapter.
PROBLEM
SOLUTION
Object is stuck to
build plate
Use a craft spatula to gently pry the object from the build plate.
In the future, you can cover your build plate with painter’s
tape. This allows your objects to stick to the build plate but
be removed more easily.
