Your MakerBot Replicator Z18 uses 1.75 mm diameter PLA filament to create 3D printed
objects. Once your spool of MakerBot PLA Filament is loaded into the filament drawer and
routed up to the top of the MakerBot Replicator Z18, all you have to do is load the free end of
the spooled filament into the heated MakerBot Replicator Smart Extruder.
FIRST STEPS
LOAD FILAMENT
1. When instructed to by the LCD screen,
press the control panel dial to start heating
the Smart Extruder.
2. When the Smart Extruder is fully heated,
push the free end of the filament into the
loading tube. Keep pushing on the filament
until you feel the Smart Extruder pulling it in.
3. Wait until you begin to see plastic
emerging from the extruder nozzle. Then
press the control panel dial to stop extrusion.
4. Push the end of the filament guide tube
into the loading tube.
5. Snap the filament guide tube into place in
the extruder clip.
6. Wait a moment for the extruded plastic
to cool, then pull it away from the Smart
Extruder. Do not touch the nozzle; it may still
be hot.
Note:
To start the load filament process
at any time, use the control panel and
navigate to
Filament > Load Filament
