WARNINGS
SECTION 2: GETTING STARTED
WITH 3DOODLER CREATE+
How it Works:
The 3Doodler Create+ melts Plastic and uses a motor and gears
(Drive Gear) to push it through the Pen’s hot end (Nozzle) in a
thin line. This process is called extruding or extrusion, and we
will refer to it throughout this User Manual. Once extruded, Plastic
cools and hardens instantly, allowing you to draw on surfaces and
in the air. This User Manual will show you how!
We created this User Manual as a step-by-step guide to
get you comfortable with your 3Doodler Create+ and
its features. Once you are familiar with these steps, you
will be able to Doodle with condence. Skipping steps
may result in a less enjoyable time with your
3Doodler Create+.

Step 3: Doodle your name
Use box below to create your rst Doodle -
your name!
Write your name in the box

suggest cursive, or block with
the letters connected.
Doodle your name in a

5.3
inches
Plastic that is shorter than 5.3 inches cannot be reversed.
You should feed it all the way through your 3Doodler Create+ and
use it up. (Alternatively, you can push Plastic out the back - see
Section 3, Step 3B.)
NOTE:
Before we continue, it’s time you learned about the dierent
types of Plastic you can use with the 3Doodler Create+
(and which settings to use for each type).
ABS (MATTE):
Temp: ABS / FLX Temp
Light: BLUE
Feature: Great for drawing in the air.
How to tell: Plastic has white
semi-circle ends.
PLA (GLOSSY / CLEAR /
METALLIC / SPARKLE ):
Temp: PLA Temp
Light: GREEN
Feature: Gossy and making it perfect
for artistic creations.
How to tell: Very rigid, no white
semi-circle ends.
Now that you’ve Doodled with ABS Plastic, we want
to show you everything you need to know about
changing Plastic and introduce you to the dierent
types of Plastic.
FLEXY:
Temp: ABS / FLX Temp
Light: BLUE
Feature: Make exible,
bendable Doodles.
How to tell: Plastic is very exible.
After removing a Plastic strand
from the 3Doodler Create+,
cut and remove any partially
melted material at the end of
your strand before re-feeding
it into the 3Doodler Create+.
This will reduce blockages and
clogging issues.
SNIP THOSE ENDS!

continuous use.
After 5 minutes of inactivity, the 3Doodler Create+’s heating
system will automatically power down. You will need to press one
of the Speed Buttons OR toggle the Control Switch OFF and then
