Why is the vacuum low on my Stratasys Fortus 360mc 3D Printers?

If your Stratasys 3D Printer's vacuum gauge reads less than -15, it indicates low vacuum, and here's what you can do: First, ensure the build sheet is correctly installed, overlapping the platen equally on all sides. Next, check for and remove any filament debris on the platen's surface. For onboard air systems, inspect the vacuum pump inlet for debris and empty the vacuum system filter jars. Also, clean the vacuum screen, being careful not to remove it. Inspect the rubber O-ring for twists or cracks; reinstall it correctly or replace it if damaged.
