Empty the purge bucket

Empty the purge bucket after each build has completed.

Inspect the tip wipe assembly

After each build you should inspect the tip wipe assembly to make sure there is no material build

up. If there is material build up, clean the tip wipe assembly. Material build up on the tip wipe

assembly can cause part quality issues. See

“Tip wipe assembly” on page 5-35

Inspect the tip shields

After each build you should inspect the tip shields for damage or material build up. If there is

material build up remove it as needed. If the material will not break free or there is damage to

the tip shield, replace the tip shield. See

“Tip shield replacement” on page 5-37

Remove debris buildup

Remove all material buildup on the Z platform and around the lead screw. Failure to do so could

cause the base to not be level or the Z platform to jam at its upper limit.

Vacuum build chamber

Vacuum the build chamber to remove all debris and purged material.

Clean door

Do not use ammonia based glass cleaner on the door. It will damage the acrylic window.

CAUTION:

ONLY use acrylic cleaner.
