¶ 1.PEI board
Clean PEI plate can increase the adhesion with the model, reduce the model falling off during the printing process and improve the printing success rate
¶ When should I do it?
You need to check whether there is dust or residual supplies on the PEI board before each printing, if so, you need to clean it before printing.
¶ How to do it?
Clean the PEI board with non-woven cloth dipped in water or alcohol
¶ 2. Optical axis of linear guide
The optical axis of the three guides need to be lubricated regularly, proper lubrication can ensure smooth movement and extend the service life
¶ When to do it?
It should be checked and greased every 15 days
¶ How to do it?
Squeeze the grease on the optical axis on both sides of the linear guide, slide the carriage up and down, repeat several times to make the grease evenly distributed on the optical axis

¶ 3. Parallel arm
The parallel arm is used as a kinematic joint to provide movement of the effector module and needs to be lubricated regularly. Proper lubrication ensures smooth movement and long life
¶ When to do it?
It should be checked and greased every 15 days
¶ How to do it?
Remove the parallel arm and apply a small amount of grease to all the pits of the ball head
¶ 4. Belt
Belt the slider to provide precise movement of the machine
¶ When to do it?
The belt should be checked and readjusted every 2 months
¶ How to do it?
Loosen the two screws marked 1 and 2 in the diagram and adjust the belt adjustment nut counterclockwise so that the yellow spring leaks out. Tighten the adjusting nuts and tighten screws 1 and 2 when the yellow spring is just out of sight. Model-assisted adjustment can also be used, refer to the belt adjustment video

¶ How do I do it?
With the printer off, use compressed air or a fine, soft brush to remove dust or debris from the fan blades
¶ 6. Extruder
Clearing debris from the wire feed wheel reduces the risk of missing and clogged material to ensure smooth operation and long life
¶ When to do it?
It is recommended to check every 15 days to clean the consumable debris from the wire feed wheels
¶ How do I do it?
Operate the extruder rotation and use compressed air or a fine ,soft brush to remove debris from the wire feed wheel. If more debris cannot be cleaned, refer to the extruder replacement video and remove the extruder for cleaning
¶ 7. Shaft motor bearing
Proper lubrication will ensure smooth operation and long life.
¶ When to do it?
It is recommended to check once a month and order lubrication
¶ How to do it?
Remove the aluminum profile cover, turn the motor and drip liquid lubricant onto the bearings
