SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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.
