6.9 Check the quality of the nozzle cover
The nozzle cover shields the print cores from cold airflow from the fans, which helps the print cores to maintain a stable
temperature while printing. The cover also helps to prevent backflow of material into the print head when something
goes wrong during printing.
The heat of the nozzles may cause wear on the nozzle cover over time. It is recommended to check the quality of the
cover at least once every three months. The accessory box of the Ultimaker S5 contains three spare nozzle covers.
Examine the bottom of the print head to see if the holes where the nozzles come through are still round and the cover
still forms a good seal. Also gently open the fan bracket to check the other side of the nozzle cover.
If the nozzle cover looks like it needs to be replaced, please follow these instructions.
Remove the old cover
1. First, remove both print cores by going to the configuration overview and selecting Unload for both print cores.
2. Close the print head fan bracket, and manually place the print head in the front center of the printer.
3. Peel away the front corner of the nozzle cover, and pull it out of the print head fan bracket.
Place the new cover
1. Open the print head fan bracket.
2. Take the new nozzle cover and hold it in the correct orientation behind the print head fan bracket. Make sure the
protruding shapes of the cover match the shapes of the holes in the bracket.
