Remove Build Platform
When a print job is successfully completed, the build platform will rise to the top of the Z-axis tower. The build platform with the printed part is ready to remove. Have a paper towel ready to catch potential drips of uncured material.
- Open the printer door.
- Place one hand on the build platform handle.
- Grasp the build platform clamp with the other hand and lift to release.
- Lightly cradle the bottom of the build platform with a paper towel. This will help to prevent dripping while removing the build platform from the printer.
-
Pull the build platform towards yourself until it comes free from the printer.
Detach Printed Parts from Build Platform
- Place the build platform on its side in the processing zone.
-
Use the scraper to gently detach models from the build platform. Angle your tool roughly 30 degrees from the platform and move the blade while applying a slight amount of pressure.
Tip: If the model doesn’t begin to separate easily, move to a different area on the model, working your way around the model until it safely dislodges from the build platform. -
Place each model on a paper towel to catch the excess material as it drips.
Reset After Print
- Once the printed parts have been removed, use the glass scraper to remove any remnants of the printed parts from the surface of the build platform.
- Wipe the entire platform dry using a paper towel. The previously printed parts shouldn’t be visible on the platform.
- Install the build platform on the printer and tighten the build platform clamping handle, see Install Build Platform.
- Close the printer door.
