Before inserting the filament into the print head, make sure that the end of the filament does not have a "defect", as this may result in the filament not being able to be drawn properly.

If the cut edge is not clean and straight, cut it with scissors, side cutters or another cutting tool.

The screw on the extruder must be tightened so that the extruder is ready for printing.

CAUTION: Do not apply excessive force, as this can damage the extruder itself.

When inserting a filament spool into the filament chamber, the spool must be correctly aligned to avoid friction. The spool should be installed so that the filament unrolls from the top, as shown in the illustration.

It is necessary to use the Filament change menu if:

  • an empty coil is to be replaced with a new coil
  • a spool is to be inserted into a printer that does not contain filament
  • filament is to be removed from the printer.
