Switch off the device and remove the toolhead front cover.
Disconnect the filament sensor, part cooling fan, cooling fan for hotend, and hotend heating assembly cables in sequence.
Note: When disconnecting the cable (far left) of the filament sensor, be careful and gentle to avoid damaging the cable.
Press the cutter handle and loosen the screw that secures the handle. After loosening the screw, slowly loosen the cutter handle and let it droop naturally.
Note: When removing a screw, make sure that the screwdriver is inserted perpendicular to the plane of the screw head. After confirming that the screwdriver head is fully inserted into the screw head, gently turn the screwdriver to loosen the screw to avoid improper operation when using the screwdriver, which may cause the screw head to slip.
Use a H2.0 Allen key to unscrew the 2 hotend screws.
Note: Due to the clog of the extruder, there may be filament residue in the hotend. Please be careful and use appropriate force to unplug the hotend.
Twist the gear out.
Note: If the above method fails, you can raise the extruder (it is recommended to place it on a spool) and use the Allen key to push the gear out.
Extruder disassembly is complete.
Note: If the bearing is lost when removing the gear, it will not be able to be extruded properly.
1. Use a piece of filament to poke into the extruder to clear the filament stuck in the extruder. If the filament is long, use tweezers to clamp it out.
2. Remove the gear and spring.
3. Clean the gears with a brush.
1. Install the gear and spring.
2. Put the large gear back into place.
3. Replace the rear cover and use an H2.0 Allen key to tighten the 4 screws back into place.
4. Turn the tension screw back until it snaps into place.
5. Turn the large gear by hand to see if it can rotate normally.
Put the hotend back in place and tighten the 2 screws back in place using a H2.0 Allen key.
Reset the cutter handle as shown in the figure below and lightly tighten the set screw on the handle.
Note: If the screw is damaged, you might need to replace the filament cutter lever which contains a replacement screw.
Connect the filament sensor, part cooling fan, cooling fan for hotend, and hotend heating assembly cables in sequence.
Note: During this operation, please be careful to ensure that all terminals are correctly aligned before insertion. Some terminals can be pressed in the wrong state, which will cause the device to report an error.
After setting up, verify that everything works by turning the printer back on and doing a manual extrusion of your filament. Everything should flow consistently.
