Your 3D printer supports two filament loading modes——Auto Loading and Manual Loading, as is the case with filament unloading. To automatically load the filament, heat up the nozzle and tap Load on the Touchscreen. To manually load the filament, heat the nozzle and extrude the filament by hand.
¶ Tools Required
-
Diagonal pliers × 1
-
Tweezers × 1
¶ Procedures
- Heat the nozzle. On the APP List Screen, tap Control > Nozzle. Slide the scale bar left or right to set the target Nozzle Temp. so that the heated block can melt the filament.
By default, the nozzle will be heated to 200°C (392°F). The Load or Unload button is available only when the nozzle is heated to around the preset temperature which should be 175°C (347°F) or higher.
- Insert the filament. During heating, hang the filament onto the Filament Holder. Cut the bent end of the filament using the diagonal pliers, and insert it into the 3D Printing Module.
Should the 3D Printing Module have filament inserted, heat the nozzle up to 200°C (392°F) and then tap Unload to pull out the old filament before inserting a new one.
- Load the filament. After the nozzle reaches the target temperature, tap Load and gently thread the filament until you feel the gear driving the filament in.
- Clean the nozzle using the tweezers.
Do not touch the hot nozzle with bare hands.

- Open the 3D Printing Module. Press the slide knob inward and then push it left to open the 3D Printing Module.
Do not touch the hot nozzle with bare hands while operating the slide knob.
- Manually extrude the filament. After the nozzle reaches the target temperature, squeeze the filament down the feed hole until the uncured filament is extruded from the nozzle. Press the slide knob inward and then push it right to close the 3D Printing Module.
