7.6.1
Checking the individual Components for Cleanliness
CAUTION!
Risk of injury due to sharp objects!
The knife on the separation unit has a sharp edge that
can cause slight hand injuries through direct contact.
–
The edge should never be touched directly.
Only hold the knife by the knurled nuts and with
the blade away from your body.
Before inserting the build platform, drip guard, knife, material reservoir
and collection basket, make sure you check the individual components
and protective glass on the machine for cleanliness.
Proceed as follows to check the components for cleanliness:
1.
Check the protective glass for cleanliness (e.g. streaks,
fingerprints) and clean it if necessary.

2.
Take the build platform in your hands and check it for material
residues. Clean the platform and the associated splash guard as
required.

Take the knife drip guard in your hands and check it for material
residues. Clean the drip guard if required.

6.
Check a full material reservoir for hardened material residues
(e.g. caused by failed print jobs) on the bottom of the reservoir
(interior). Use a soft silicone spatula (alternatively a paper card)
for this purpose, and carefully slide it over the bottom of the
reservoir. Remove residues using the automatic reservoir
cleaning function if required.
