1.1. Intended use of Drywise dryer
Drywise dryer is designed and built for use in FDM/FFF 3D printing to be used in-line
with a 3D printer. The device removes excess humidity from the filament before and
during 3D printing.
1.2. General disclaimer

the manual may lead to personal injury, inferior results or damage to the Drywise
dryer, 3D Printer or its peripherals. Make sure that anyone who uses this device knows
and understands the contents of the manual to make the most out of the Drywise
dryer.
The conditions or methods used for assembling, handling, storage, use, maintenance
or disposal of the device are beyond Thought3D’s control and may be beyond its

instructed by the product user interface.
• This product is not intended for use by children.
• Thought3D products (including Drywise Dryer) are not intended for use by
persons with reduced physical and/or mental capabilities, lack of experience
or knowledge, unless they are supervised or have been given instructions
concerning the use of the product by a person responsible for their safety.
• Do not insert any foreign objects other than approved hygroscopic filament for
FDM/FFF 3D printing into the pathway of the filament.
2.2. Health and safety
• The Product dries third party materials. Please follow the safety procedures of
the manufacturers of such materials.
• The Product operates in conjunction with third-party 3D printers. Please follow
the safety procedures of the manufacturers of such devices.
• Follow safety instructions for desiccant handling and regeneration.
• Third party materials may release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and/
or ultrafine particles (UFPs). It is recommended that the Product is set up in a
well-ventilated area.
This guide contains warnings and safety notices:
Provides helpful information to do a task or avoid problems.

4.1. Unboxing
In order to respect our environment we have opted to use mostly cardboard as our
packaging material. Kindly recycle the packaging material or dispose of according to
local legislation in order to help reduce the environmental footprint.
Place the box vertically with the sticker facing the right way up. Open the packaging
tape and fold out the cardboard flaps. Take hold of the inner packaging and pull out
the packaging and the device. Remove the support blocks and place the device on a
solid surface. All the remaining accessories are packed in the secondary box that you
should find in the main packaging.

4.3. Hardware installation and first interaction
a) Remove shipping screw
For shipping purposes, the pump inside the
device is secured with the help of a screw. This
needs to be removed before the operation of the
device. The screw is clearly shown in the image.
Remove the screw and store this for future use if
needed.
d) Attach desiccant tube
Attach the desiccant tube as shown in image.
Both clips should snap into place and click.
b) Install the bowden tube
A bowden tube can be attached to the out-
put port to facilitate the movement of the fila-
ment and avoid any entanglements. To insert a
bowden tube, connect the provided connector
by screwing it in place, then push a length of
bowden tubing securely in the connector.
c) Attach spool holder base
To install the spool holder, remove the 4 screws
as shown in the image. Place the spool holder
base and align the holes. Secure the spool hold-
er base in place with the 4 screws that you have
just removed. The cylindrical part of the spool
holder can then be screwed in place.
Drywise User Manual 9
e) Place the Drywise machine near 3D printer
• Place the Drywise machine as close to the filament extruder of your 3D
printer as possible. A shorter path ensures less filament is exposed to the
atmosphere after being properly dried. It might also mean less setup time
before printing can be started.
• Do not obstruct the air outflow from the right hand side of the device (when
looking at the Drywise from the front) as warm air needs to be expelled
from here.
• Make sure the filament paths to the Drywise machine and from the Drywise
to the printer are not obstructed so that there is no chance for the filament
to get snagged.
f) Attach the power cord to the device and plug it in a mains socket.
g) Switch on the device and follow the instructions on the touchscreen.
Drywise User Manual10
5.1. Recommendations
Ensure that the Drywise machine is placed in a suitable position and environment.
The device should be in an upright position on a solid surface. For the best
performance it should be operated at an ambient temperature of between 15 and
35oC (59 - 95oF).
Ensure that there is at least 10cm of free space to the right side of the Drywise device
for unrestricted airflow. When in use the device should be positioned out of direct
sunlight and away from liquids or humidity.
5. Operation
Always check that the filament can move freely without any obstructions from the
dryer to the printer as these can hamper the operation of the device.
