UltiMaker S8 Installation and user manual
1.4 Personal protective equipment
The following items are recommended for safely working with UltiMaker S series products,
particularly during maintenance:
• Tweezers. Required for safely removing material residue from the nozzle tips.
• Pliers. When performing the hot and cold pull procedure to clean the print cores, use pliers to hold the filament.
This prevents hand injury in case the material breaks.
• Thermal gloves. Recommended when cleaning the nozzle, as the nozzle will be hot during these procedures.
• Protective gloves. Recommended when removing brims or support structures from the printed parts, or when
using tools to remove objects from the build plate.
• Safety glasses. Recommended when removing support structures, performing certain post-processing tasks, or
in other situations with an increased risk of injury.
Note: Situations where personal protective equipment is recommended are referenced throughout this user
manual, or visit ultimaker.com/s-series-safety-compliance.
