TABLE OF CONTENTS
A. PRECAUTIONS
2
1. Do not remove the print surface from the platform, it is a special tape that allows the
first layer of your print to adhere to the print bed.
2. Do not remove the tape or insulation from the nozzle, it is for maintaining nozzle
temperature.
3. Use this printer using the correct voltage input and follow all local laws.
4. Beware the heat blocks, nozzles, extruded filament and heating plate can be
extremely hot and will burn your skin if you are not careful.
5. Do not wear gloves when operating or repairing to avoid entanglement.
6. Do not leave the machine unattended when it is in operation.
7. At the end of its life please dispose of your 3D printer responsibly.
8. Do not load unsupported filament.
9. Keep your 3D printer and all accessories out of children’s reach.
10. When printing via USB, keep a stable connection between the PC and the printer.
11. Do not move the extruder during printing.
12. Do not pull or twist the power cable during operation.
13. Do not force or tear anything during unpacking and setup. This may damage the printer.
14. WARNING
a) Never reach inside while it is in operation. Always allow it to cool down before
reaching inside.
b) If opening the printer for service, ensure that the power supply is turned off and
the cord is disconnected.
15. CAUTION
a) Please take your time and be careful while unpacking and setting up your
3D printer; there are many components that can be damaged if it is not set up or
handled correctly.
