Notes

1. Do not use the printer in other wrong ways to avoid personal injury or property damage.

2. Do not place the printer near any heat source or flammable or explosive objects. We
suggest placing it in a well-ventilated, low-dust environment.

3. Do not expose the printer to violent vibration or any unstable environment, as this may
cause poor print quality.

4. Before using experimental or exotic filaments, we suggest using standard filaments such as
ABS or PLA to calibrate and test the machine.

5. Do not use any other power cable except the one supplied. Always use the three-pin plug .

6. Do not touch the nozzle or printing surface during operation as they may be hot. Keep
hands away from machine while in use to avoid burns or personal injury.

7. Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when operating the printer. Such cloths may become
tangled in the printers moving parts leading to burns, personal injury, or printer damage.

8. When cleaning debris from the printer hotend, always use the provided tools. Do not touch
the nozzle directly when heated. This can cause personal injury.

9. Clean the printer frequently. Always turn the power off when cleaning, and wipe with a dry
cloth to clean dust, adhered printing plastics or any other material from the frame, guide
rails, or wheels . Use glass cleaner or isopropyl alcohol to clean the print surface before
every print for consistent results.

10.Children under the age of 10, should not use the printer without any supervision.
