Adjusting the spring tension
The spring tension of the extruder must be adjusted. To adjust the spring tension, turn the
thumb screw on the top of the extruder. Turning it clockwise increases the spring tension
and thus exerts more pressure on the filament.
Recommended spring tension
The spring block should be aligned with the face of the tension lever. Depending on the
material used, further adjustments may be necessary, e.g. additional tension for flexible
filaments. The teeth of the gear should be fully visible in the filament but should not leave
deep notches.
Make sure the temperature of the nozzle is below 50°C every time you turn off the machine
to prevent clogging or damage to the hotend.
