Safety Instruction
Building the printer will require a certain amount of
physical dexterity, common sense and a thorough
understanding of what you are doing. We have provided
detailed instructions to help you assemble it easily, please
download at geeetech.com.
However ultimately we cannot be responsible for
your health and safety whilst building or operating the
printer, with that in mind be sure you are confident with
what you are doing prior to commencing with building or
buying. Read the entire manual to enable you to make an
informed decision.
Building and operating involves electricity, so all
necessary precautions should be taken and adhered to,
the printer runs on 12V supplied by a certified power
supply, so you shouldn’t ever have to get involved with

anything over 12V but bear in mind there can still be
high currents involved and even at 12V they shouldn’t be
taken lightly.
High temperatures are involved with 3D Printing, the
Extrusion nozzle of the hot end can run about 230°C, the
heated bed runs 110°C and the molten plastic extruded
will initially be at around 200°C, so special care and
attention should be made when handling these parts of
the printer during operation.
We wouldn’t recommend leaving your printer
running unattended, or at least until you are confident to
do so. We cannot be held responsible for any loss,
damage, threat, hurt or other negligent result from either
building or using the printer.
