1.3 Hazards
Electrical safety
The UltiMaker S7 is powered by mains voltage, which is hazardous when touched. Only skilled and
instructed persons should remove the bottom cover of the printer. Always check local regulations before
removing the bottom cover.
A mains socket with protective earth/ground terminal must be used. Make sure that the building installation
has dedicated means of over-current and short-circuit protection. Please use a circuit breaker with a current
rating not exceeding 16A.
Only use the original power cable supplied with the device. Do not damage, cut, or repair the cable. A damaged
cable should be immediately replaced with a new one.
Alwaysunplugtheproductbeforeperformingmaintenanceormodications,unlessexplicitlystatedotherwise
for certain (maintenance) processes.
Mechanical safety
Pinching and entanglement hazard. Do not reach into the top area of the printer during operation due to a
pinching hazard. Do not lean over the printer during operation due to risk of entanglement of hair, jewelry,
and/orscarfs.Thismaycauseminorpain,butnosignicantinjurytotheuserisexpectedfrompinchingor
entanglement by the drive belts.
Crushing or pinching hazard. The force of the build plate is limited but may cause minor injury, so stay out of
the reach of the build plate during operation.
Alwaysunplugtheproductbeforeperformingmaintenanceormodications,unlessexplicitlystatedotherwise
for certain (maintenance) processes.
Risk of burns
Hot surface hazard. There is a potential risk of burns: the print heads of the UltiMaker 3D printers can reach
temperatures above 200 °C, while the heated bed can reach temperatures above 100 °C. Do not touch either
of these parts with your bare hands. This symbol is placed on the print head and on the build plate to warn the
user about this risk.
AllowtheUltiMaker3Dprinterstocooldownsucientlybeforereachinginside,orperformingmaintenance
ormodications,unlessexplicitlystatedotherwiseforcertainprocesses.Alwayswaituntilthedisplayindicates
that the build plate has cooled down to a safe temperature.
Emission hazard
During3Dprinting,UltraneParticles(UFPs),VolatileOrganicCompounds(VOCs),andotherchemical
substancesmaybeemitted.Abovecertainconcentrations(ThresholdLimitValues,TLV),theseemissions
canposearisk.Concentrationsareinuencedbythelamentandadhesiveused,printconditions(e.g.print
temperature), room volume, Air Exchange Rate (AER), and number of printers in a room.
