1 Basic Information

1.1 General description

The Mycusini is an easy-to-use 3D-food-printer for use in private kitchen.

It consists of a heatable cartridge holder, which is mounted to a positioning unit and
operated via internal monitor. The x and y axis are controlled by a tooth belt, while
the z axis and the extruder are set into motion by threaded rods. The cartridge holder
is located at the end of the y axis and during the production process is moved
upwards layer by layer by means of the z-motor. The production plate represents the
x axis and serves as a bearing surface for the pads to be printed (flexible production
mat).

The food is filled into food-safe cartridges or are available as food-safe refills. These
cartridges are inserted into the cartridge holder and if necessary heated to a
temperature specifically defined for the food item. There is no direct contact between
the food item located in the cartridge and the device itself.

3.2 General safety instruction for the machine

This device is built according to the current technical rules and regulations. However,
dangers may arise if the device is used in an inappropriate manner or out of
accordance with regulations.

The information contained in the user’s manual designed to protect the user from
injury. It additionally serves to avoid mistakes, thus assuring that the device runs
safely and disturbance-free

In order to avoid dangers and to ensure optimal performance, neither alterations nor
reconstructions may be performed on the machine unless explicitly approved by the
manufacturer.

The device may only be used in technical and operationally safe conditions in
accordance with the instructions within this user’s manual.

In the case of damage due to a lack of observance of this operation manual, the
guarantee is voided. The manufacturer will not take over responsibility for
subsequent damages.

The manufacturer assumes no liability for damages to persons, objects or property
that occur due to inappropriate handling or a lack of adherence to the safety
instructions. In these cases, the guarantee is voided.

3.3 Special safety instruction for the machine

The information pertaining to work safety corresponds to the regulations of the
European Union at the time the device was manufactured.

3.3.1 General directions
Warning: Never leave the Mycusini unattended in use

Warning: High temperatures may develop in the printing head of the

Mycusini. For this reason, never grasp the printer while in operation. Change
the food cartridge only after the printer has cooled down sufficiently

Warning: The power supply plug must always be in vicinity of the printer and
easily be reachable.

Warning: In the case of emergency, immediately disconnect the power
source and power plug!

Warning: In order to prevent fire or electrocution, never set this device onto
damp or wet surfaces.

Warning: Mycusini includes moving parts that can cause injury. Never grip
inside the Mycusini during operation.

For questions please contact us at [e-mail]

original operating instructions mycusini

For use outside of the European Union, the occupational safety legislation and
regional stipulations have to be followed according to all local, state and federal
regulations.

In addition to the occupational safety notes in this manual, the valid safety- and
accident prevention regulations as well as the valid environmental protection
stipulations for the location at which the machine operates have to be observed and
maintained:

3.3.2 Setup, location of operation

Place the Mycusini on a stable, horizontal, large enough area only. Please note, that
the production plate moves from right to left when operating and thus requires
enough space. In addition, some movement also occurs vertically. When selecting
operating location, please ensure that the device may move in these directions.

Choose the operating location in a way, that children cannot reach the product.

When setting up the device, please ensure that the power adapter is easily
accessible in order to quickly and easily separate the device in the event of error.

Do not place the machine in areas of extreme temperatures, strong vibrations, high
humidity (i.e. rain or steam), dust, or heavy mechanical stresses.

Do not place any liquid-filled vessels (i.e. glasses, vases, etc.) on top of or in the
vicinity of the machine and never pour water over the machine. Fluids may enter the
machine casing and impair the electronic stability of the machine. Additionally, there
is a high risk of fire or life-threatening electrical shocks!

If such an event occurs, disconnect the power supply plug completely (i.e. turn off the
circuit breaker and earth leakage circuit breaker) and then pull the power cord from
the socket. Disconnect all wires from the device. The entire product may not be used
again. Please contact a specialized dealer or the manufacturer.

Do not place any sources of ignition such as stoves, fryers or burning candles next to
or on top of the device.

While setting up the machine, be sure that the power cord is not squeezed or
damaged by sharp corners.

Take note of the additional safety instructions to be found in the chapters of this
manual.

5.1 Cleaning of the stainless steel cartridge

Please use the enclosed cleaning tweezers.

Please remove the remainder of the refill with the cleaning tweezers before cleaning
or refilling the cartridge at the end of a production.

You can clean the empty cartridge in the dishwasher or by hand with warm water and
mild soap.

Warning! The stainless steel cartridge heats up during production. Allow it to
cool sufficiently before removing it for cleaning.

5.2 Cleaning of the printing plate

The production plate is fixed magnetically to the production table. Thus, you have the
opportunity to remove them for cleaning. To preserve the life of your production plate,
we recommend cleaning it by hand.

Important! Use only moderately warm water, so that your production plate
does not deform. Do not use scouring pads or scouring agents that scratch
the production board.

5.3 Cleaning of the flexible printing mat

The flexible printing mat is dishwasher safe in the upper drawer of the dishwasher.
However, due to the caustic effect of dishwashing detergents, washing by hand is
reccommended to increase the lifespan of the flexible printing mat.

Wipe with a damp, soft sponge, then rinse thoroughly. A mild detergent or soap may
be used. Do not use scouring pads. Shake off excess water and air dry the flexible
printing mat. Store flat, the flexible printing mat should not be kinked or folded.

6.1.1 Calibrate

Your mycusini is adjusted for printing with mycusini 3D Choco. If you notice, that the tip of
your cartridge is too low or too high during the first layer of printing, you may calibrate it using
the "Calibrate" menu. With this service menu you may reset or adjust the tip to the printing
area.

Please use this menu only in combination with the video tutorial "Calibrate", which you will
find in the mycusini Club in your personal account under Tips & Tricks. You may also contact
the mycusini service team at [e-mail] for assistance.
