Breakaway support
Prints using UltiMaker Breakaway support material will require post-processing to remove the support structures.
This can be achieved by breaking the support structures from the build material. Follow the steps below and refer
to the UltiMaker website for additional tips and information.
It is advised to wear protective gloves when the support structure contains sharp corners or when
working with larger models.
1. Tear away most of the inner support structure using pliers.
2. Use cutting pliers to grip the Breakaway support interface and pull it away from the model.
3. Remove the last traces of the Breakaway support using cutting pliers or tweezers.
Similar steps can be used to remove support structures printed with build materials. However, these structures
canbemorediculttoremoveandleavemorescarringonthemodel.
