1.2 Notices 1. During the period of operation of the 3D printer and for a period of time after the end of printing, the temperature of the nozzle is as high as 200 ℃ or more. So do not touch the nozzle with your hand. 2. Please follow the instructions in the guide to operate the machine. If you have any questions, please contact the after-sales service. 3.
Chapter 2 Preparation before Printing Connect TPFE Tube to extruder and filament intake -3-
Hang the filament at the side of the 3d printer.
Chapter 3 Load & Unload 3.1 Load Passing the filament trough extruder Passing the filament trough extruder Toggle the switch to the left as the load (to the left is the load, the right is the unload, the middle is the stop).
The printer nozzle begins to heating while red light, the green light is always on, the printer nozzle is heated, and the printer begins to load. Red light for heating The ”Start Button“ is twinkling with green color while standby and printing. Click the button to pause print when it is printing. And reclick it that can restore to printing. Long-time press the machine to stop printing, The machine will auto home.
3.2 Unload Toggle the switch to the right as the unload (to the left is the load, the right is the unload, the middle is the stop). Unload The printer nozzle begins to heating while red light. The printer nozzle is heated while green light is always on, and the printer begins to unload.
Chapter 4 Printing Please rename your printing file as 0.gcode, save in the TF Card. Then insert the TF Card.
Please make sure the DIP switch is in the middle position.
Chapter 5 Analysis of Common Problems 1. When using the machine, the metal shell on the surface of the machine may be electrostatically charged and will not cause any impact on the human body. The solution can be done by grounding the metal of the machine housing. 2. During the printing process, the printing platform is scraped somewhere, please make sure there is no foreign matter under the PVC magnetic sticker. 3. If the filament can not come out normal as following reasons: 3.
4.4 The nozzle is forcibly blocked in the middle of printing. The first moving nozzle cannot be touched by hand during printing. Secondly, if the model map prints the uppermost layer with the negative distortion, the next time the printing will repeat the increase of the engraving, a certain degree of hardening of the anomaly will prevent the nozzle from moving normally, causing the motor to lose position and cause misalignment. 4.5 The voltage is unstable.
5.4 The PLA print nozzle temperature is 190-220, and the ABS print nozzle temperature is 210-230. The printing temperature required for the consumables fluctuates. If the wire is not smooth, you can try to increase the printing temperature (such as 200 to 205 or 210 printing) and try to increase the temperature by 5-10 degrees. 6.
Annex: It is recommended to use our MakerPi's slicing software. If you use any other software to cause machine damage, and the consequences will be borne by yourself. Please refer to change parameters and commands as follows, if you use others’software settings.
