Why is plastic not extruding from the Folger Tech 3D Printers nozzle?
If plastic isn't extruding, first make sure the filament is feeding correctly and being pushed into the nozzle from the extruder. Then, check that the nozzle temperature is correctly set, around 210 °C for PLA and 230 °C for ABS.
What to do if the initial layer is not sticking on my Folger Tech FT-5 3D Printers?
If the initial layer isn't sticking, try these steps: 1. Replace the Scotch Blue Painter’s Tape. 2. Check the bed level. 3. Apply a thin layer of Elmer’s glue (glue stick only) for maximum adhesion.
How to fix layers shifting towards a tower on Folger Tech FT-5 3D Printers?
If layers are shifting towards a tower, check and tighten the belt on that tower. Also, inspect the belt pulley on the stepper motor of that tower for looseness.
What to do if the nozzle is too close to the bed on the first layer of my Folger Tech FT-5?
If the nozzle is too close to the bed on the first layer, adjust the Z endstop.
