When to Clean
The build platform should remain as clean as possible between print jobs to keep your printer in optimal printing condition. The build platform should be cleaned when:
- build platform becomes sticky
- material cures around the build platform clamping handle
-
when changing the material type
Cleaning Procedure
- Clean the connection cavity at the top of the build platform using a Q-tip with 99% IPA.
- If too much material has cured in the torque knob screw threading, replace the build platform.
- Clean the surface of the build platform with a clean paper towel.
- Check every surface for material, buildup, or stickiness.
- Clean the excessive buildup using a small amount of 99% IPA on a clean paper towel or Q-tip.
- Hard spots of cured material can be carefully scraped off using the paint scraper from the Starter Kit.
