6.4 Algemene Skoonmaak

Keep the printer clean and free of dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down exterior surfaces. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.

7. Probleemoplossing

Hierdie afdeling bespreek algemene probleme wat u tydens die operasie kan teëkom.

  • Swak eerste laag adhesie: Ensure the build plate is clean and free of grease. Re-run the automatic leveling process. Consider using the provided glue stick for enhanced adhesion.
  • Spuitstukverstopping: If the nozzle is clogged, try using the unclogging pin tool. If the clog persists, replace the nozzle. Ensure proper filament loading and storage to prevent moisture absorption.
  • Print Quality Issues (e.g., ghosting, warping): Verify that the printer is on a stable surface. Ensure the chamber temperature is appropriate for the filament being used. The printer features vibration compensation to minimize ghosting.
  • Filament nie ekstruderend nie: Check if the filament is properly loaded and not tangled. Ensure the nozzle is not clogged and has reached the correct temperature.
  • Drukker koppel nie: Verify Wi-Fi or Ethernet connections. Restart the printer and your network router if necessary.
