•
MECHANICAL NATURE INTERVENTIONS
Any intervention of a mechanical nature must be carried out in strict compliance with the directives required by
current safety regulations. It is absolutely forbidden to perform any type of mechanical maintenance intervention
on the printer during the operating cycle or in any case with parts of the printer moving.
Everymechanicaloperationmustbecarriedoutwiththeprinterstoppedandonlyandexclusivelybythemechanical
maintenance technician, qualified to operate in conditions of safety (see paragraph 1.7.1 “Identification of the
operating personnel”).
Maintenance work must only be performed with the machine disconnected from the power source and taking all

1.5.2. Operators for whom the manual is intended
The manual is written for:
• The operators involved in using the printer (in the continuation of the manual will be briefly called “users”);
• Mechanical maintenance workers: trained and authorized operators for the maintenance of mechanical
parts, pneumatic and oil-hydraulic systems;
• Electrician maintenance technicians: trained and authorized operators for the maintenance of electrical and
/ or electronic parts and systems;
• Qualified technicians (employees of the Manufacturer or authorized service center), special maintenance
staff and operations of a complex and / or particular nature.
ATTENTION:
The user must not perform operations reserved for maintenance personnel or qualified technicians.
The manufacturer is not liable for damages deriving from failure to observe this prohibition. Users
or qualified technicians.
1.5.3. Protection systems
The machine is provided with automatical systems of protection that reduces the risks for the user.
These systems are present as a standard in all machines and shall not, for any reason, be manipulated nor
damaged. Upon seeing abnormalities in the fuctions of these systems, the user is responsible of reporting them
to the Manifacturer, who’ll fix it.
Anytime the fuctions of these systems are compromised the machine must not be used for no reason as it may
be dangerous for the user and may lead to major damages to the machine itself.
DOOR SENSOR
ATTENTION:
Do not put any magnet or magnetic device near the frame of the door as it may compromise its right
behaviour
The Door sensor activates anytime the door is open and automatically pauses any action on the machine
(including heating, movements and tool-change).
OVERHEATING BLOCK
The machine is designed with a control system to prevent the overheating of its parts by blocking the heating
parts as the temperatures recorded overcome the saftey threshold.
1.5.4. Residual risks
Residual risk of scalding
This risk exists during the removal phase of the filament from the extruder and during the removal of the piece
from the plate.
CAUTION:
Remove the part only when both the extruder and the bed are cool.
ATTENTION:
During the operations on the machine the user must wear protective gauntlets.
