Safety instructions
Only well informed individuals should work with the printer.
The printer needs to be supervised at all times. In case of a
malfunction, stop the print and switch off the printer.
The printer contains parts and surfaces that reach dangerous
temperatures (up to 300°C) which can stay hot after the printer is
switched off. Burn injury hazard!
The printer is powered by high voltage. Always switch off and
plug the printer out of the wall socket before working with the
power supply.
The printer contains moving parts. Don’t interact with the
printing volume during printing. The printer can make a move
even without warning beforehand. Injury hazard.

About READY REBEL 1 (RR1)
For the RR1, speed and accuracy are a matter of course!
The printer achieves high accuracy thanks to precise branded linear guides and high-quality
belt drives. In addition to accuracy, it is also very fast compared to other RR1 machines,
while maintaining excellent quality thanks to sufficiently dimensioned drives and light moving
parts. Treat yourself to first-class printing!
Rigid construction is a sign of stability.
The solid construction of the RR1 ensures excellent stability in all printing conditions, which
increases print quality.
Maximum lightweight direct drive printhead with dual-drive
the drive and transmission system is tuned to easily reach the speed and acceleration of
Bowden lightweight extruders (without motor on the platform) while maintaining top print
quality.
Large print space to implement your ideas
You have a large print space for printing even the most demanding models with a floor plan
of 235x235mm and 300mm print height! Implement your ideas and turn them into printed
facts.
Hotend is the foundation
We use combinations of extruder parts and hot ends with components of the highest quality
manufacturers available for our printers. The main elements of the hotend are compatible
with E3D in the highest quality. They can print virtually all available print materials, which
means complete freedom for you to choose them. PLA, ABS, HIPS, ASA, PET, nylon,
polycarbonate, flexible materials, filled or highly abrasive filaments. Hotend handles material
printing up to 300°C.
Automatic axial calibration
The design of the printers is strong and accurate enough that no special calibration is
required. The only way to align the Z axis is to use a digital scan sensor (BL-TOUCH), which
allows the printer to automatically compare the Z axis using a pad, even if it is replaced by a
different surface thickness (PEI, PET, GLASS ... ..) and therefore flawless first layer - the
basis for successful model printing.
Quality printing pad
On the RR1 printer, we use a high-quality removable printing pad with powerful and even
heating. The actual printing surface then forms polyetherimide (PEI). It fastens practically all
commonly used printing materials, is maintenance-free and very durable.
PC-free printing
1.9.2020 5/19 V1.0
You do not need a computer connected to the printer to print. Thanks to the LCD display with
SD card reader or USB flash drive, everything is simpler. The model can be easily loaded on
one of the media and the printer then prints directly from it. Simple, reliable.
Resuming after an unexpected print interruption
The control system is equipped with the function of resuming printing after a power failure, so
it is possible to resume printing where it left off when printing is interrupted. The system is
functional, but not 100% reliable in all circumstances, so we recommend installing a suitable
UPS to eliminate interruption of printing due to loss of power.
Calm and quiet operation
Although it is a printer with a relatively high power drive system, it can be described as
relatively quiet, mainly due to the combination of massive construction, precise linear guides
and quality control of stepper motors.

Preparing to print
Turn on the printer for the first time
- Connect the printer to a 230V mains using the power cord.
- Check the main switch on the back and if it is not in position 1, turn it to position.
- After pressing the front operation switch, the start logo appears on the control LCD
and then in the main menu. This starts the printer and prepares you to begin printing
or other actions.
Note: The right light switch can be turned on or off. The light switch has no further effect on
the operation of the printer.
Printing area
!!! If the bed is hot, always hold it only by the handles, otherwise burns may occur !!!
If any plastic remains on the substrate on the previous print, carefully remove it, preferably
with a plastic spatula !!! not with a sharp metal or a breaking knife !!!
Always clean the pad with a paper towel or other dry non-greasy cloth before printing. Do not
touch the pad unnecessarily with your hands and do not use anything other than IPA -
isopropyl alcohol for degreasing. There is no need to degrease before each print, only if the
prints stop sticking to the plate.
Note: The board is coated with PEI foil, which you should try to keep clean and free of
grease. Do not use sharp and hard tools to remove the printout or material residues, as this
could damage the surface of the PEI and cause poor adhesion of the printouts !!!!
Removing a printout
Always allow the pad to cool as much as possible after printing. !!! If you try to remove the
printout from the pad immediately after printing, the surface of the pad will be
damaged !!!
The temperature at which printing can be easily removed cannot be clearly determined
depending on the type and manufacturer of the material. With PLA, the ideal temperature for
removing printing is about 40 ° C, PETG and ABS about 50 ° C.
After cooling to the ideal temperature, gently bend the printing plate on both sides to release
the print. If the print is still on the platen, help it with your hand, but do not use excessive
force.
1.9.2020 18/19 V1.0
Inserting / removing / replacing the filament
all the above actions are performed using the menu for manual extrusion and filament
exchange - Extrude on page 15. Here we summarize the basic steps:
1. set the appropriate temperature for handling the filament in the Nozzle temperature
menu, for example for PLA - 200 ° C, for ABS, ASA and PETG - 230 ° C and for TPE /
FLEX - 210 ° C
2. after heating, select in the menu Extrude
feed length 100mm and click on the filament Increase icon
The filament starts to come out of the extruder and at the end help your hand to
remove it completely.
3. When inserting, proceed in the opposite way to point 2. Insert the fiber with slight
pressure
into the inlet of the filament extruder and click on the filament Decrease
icon and wait for the material to start flowing out of the nozzle.
If changing to a different color, feed the filament until a material of the same color as
the one being fed comes out of the nozzle.
