Cleaning the Printer Casing

The printer’s metal casing protects the internal components from damage. To avoid spilling material on the casing, always hold a paper towel under the build platform and the material tray while installing or removing it. Once spilled, the material cures to the casing and it is difficult to remove it.

1. Wipe the spilled material as soon as it touches the printer before it cures.
2. Remove the majority of the spill with a dry paper towel first, then lightly spray a second paper towel with IPA and wipe away any residue.

Risk of damage to equipment: If rubbed with too much pressure or for too long, the casing may become discolored.
 

Cleaning the Touchscreen

Sticky spots on the touchscreen can make it difficult to press buttons or navigate the interface effectively.

1. Spray the lens cleaner onto a clean paper towel.
2. Gently wipe the surface of the touch screen.
    

Clean Dust

Dust may accumulate on, near, or inside of the printer. Dust can build up on fans and vent holes. High levels of dust accumulation can cause the printer to overheat.

1. Look around the vent holes on the left and right sides of the printer’s casing for signs of buildup.
2. Listen to the fan for inconsistency, stress, or obstructions when the printer is powered on.
3. To remove dust, power down the printer, disconnect the power cable and wipe the vents and fan with a microfiber cloth.
4. Look down through the safety glass under the material tray and check for dust or debris on the projector lens. If there is dust on the projector lens:
