Regularly use a brush to clean the smoke and dust accumulated on the heat sink and fan. Additionally, clean the flame sensor at the front end of the laser module and the laser lens using alcohol and non-woven cloth. When cleaning the cameras, please note that only use a small amount of alcohol and slightly squeeze the non-woven cloth dry before wiping to prevent alcohol from seeping into the plastic housing.
H2D can assess the level of contamination on the printer based on the type and duration of laser tasks, and provide corresponding cleaning and maintenance reminders (this feature is not supported in the factory firmware and the supported versions will be announced later). Please be sure to maintain and clean the laser module as required. Failure to do so may cause damage to the machine and create safety risks.
It is recommended to use a brush to simply clean the debris and dust on the outer surface after each laser task. When the printer pops up a window for cleaning and maintenance, you need to remove the upper cover of the laser module and clean the dust on the fan surface and the heatsink under the fan. Use a quick release tool to remove the air nozzle and wipe the laser lens.

Use a brush to clean the dust on the cover from multiple angles to ensure thorough cleaning. If there is a significant amount of dust around the laser module, you can first wipe it with a non-woven cloth dampened with alcohol. This step will also be included in the subsequent cleaning process.

Unfasten the buckle of the connector cable and loosen the connector cable. Then use a brush to clean the dust on the fan and the connector cable. When cleaning the fan, rotate the fan while cleaning to ensure that all the dust on each fan blade is removed. After removing large dust particles, you can use alcohol to clean the brush, ensuring a good cleaning effect.

For some versions of the laser module, the cable connector at this point is fixed with glue. When removing it, grip the base of the connector with your hand and lift it upwards to unlock the connector. Avoid applying force horizontally to prevent damaging the connector. After removal, the glue on the connector can be cleaned off to facilitate future installations.
For another version of the laser module, the cable connector is not glued, the removal method is the same.
After successfully removing the housing, re-unscrew the screw (M2.5x26) on the fan.

Finally, spray alcohol on the non-woven cloth, use tweezers to hold the cloth and insert it into the housing to wipe, thoroughly cleaning the inner walls of the housing on all four sides.
The air assist tube coupler is generally not prone to dust clogging. If no blockage is felt in it, this cleaning step can be skipped.
Spray alcohol on the brush or non-woven cloth, then wipe the air assist tube coupler clean.

During the above maintenance process, it is recommended to use alcohol (75% ethanol or 70% isopropanol) and non-woven cloth to wipe the surfaces of components such as camera lenses, metal, and plastic. For specific areas like top cover, fan blades, and heat sinks, it is recommended to use a brush for cleaning.
After using liquid cleaning agents, please slightly wring the non-woven cloth dry before cleaning. Additionally, we strongly recommend increasing the cleaning frequency to prevent oil stains buildup that may become difficult to remove.
If the contamination is severe, a degreaser similar to Mr. Muscle should be used for deep cleaning.
