The following has been written in order to cover all possible printing scenarios. For scenarios which occur outside the scenarios detailed in this manual, the user will be held accountable for their own safety.
Resin Care
Wear proper protective equipment, avoid raw material contact and vapor inhalation.
Chemical-resistant gloves should be worn when you make contact with resin.
Avoid exposing resin to high temperatures, localized heat sources (i.e., drum or band heaters), oxidizing
conditions, freezing conditions, direct sunlight, ultraviolet radiation, inert gas blanketing.
Never pour the waste resin back to the bottle or down the sink, as it may pollute the remaining resin or clog the drain.
You may pour resin waste into plastic bag and expose it to sunlight or UV light source to cure the resin. The cured resin can then be discarded.
Avoid dripping resin on anything other than the platform or the resin tank, or the printer may malfunction.

Resin Tank Care
Due to the nature of the print technology and material, the resin tank may
develop cloudy regions overtime where the laser cures the resin frequently and may lead to print fails. Moving the print location around the platform can help prolong the life of the tank.
Change to a new tank when over 2/3 of the surface gets cloudy.
Use a separate resin tank when using resin of different colors. Mixing resin of
different color may affect printing quality.

You can activate resin-filling function manually. Before doing so, make sure the resin bottle, resin tank and the lid are installed correctly. (See “Unpack & Setup” for details).
“Horizon Calibration” ensures the platform is parallel with the resin tank for more stable printing performance. Always perform “Horizon Calibration” after changing to a new tank or a tank different the one used for last print.
