Filament removal – idle machine
Filament cannot be removed when machine is “cold”, as it will be melt inside extruder, therefore to remove it you need to
follow those easy steps:
1. Set the extruder at 70% of working temperature (usually almost all polymers start softening at 160°-170° C,
enough to remove filament)
2. When required temperature is reached, grab the feeder handle and lock it open
3. Pull and remove filament from machine
Filament removal – running machine
When machine is running, if you need to replace the empty spool you can do it quickly with just a few steps:
1. Use the jogwheel to navigate to TUNE->CHANGE FILAMENT
2. Printer will pause, retract filament while moving to a safe parking area
3. Release and lock open the feeder handle
4. Remove filament and swap in a new spool. Follow then the procedure to load new filament
