1Safety
General safety
-Keep children under the age of 14 out of reach of the printer
-FELIXprinters are only suitable for professional use.
Considerations when in operation.
-Don’t leave the printer unattended, before making sure the first layer is
printed properly
-Don’t lean on the printer.
-Be careful with long hair and wide clothes.
-Don’t transport the printer.
-Make sure all moving parts can move without any obstructions.
-Don’t remove any objects from the hot plate while printing.
-Caution with any moving parts that move in the X, Y and Z direction. Moving
parts can have a pinching hazard.
Electronic safety
-Only use the power supplies and cables supplied by FELIXprinters. Always
turn off and unplug the printer before performing maintenance or
modifications.
-The power supply meets all CE mark regulations and is protected against
short-circuit, overload, over voltage and over temperature.
Printer placement
-Place the FELIXprinter on a stable surface.
-Place the printer out of reach of children. Use the FELIXprinter in a dry
environment at room temperature.
Ventilate
-Good ventilation while printing is advised. When printing ABS, small
concentrations of styrene vapor can be released. This can (in some cases)
cause headaches, fatigue, dizziness, confusion, drowsiness, malaise,
difficulty in concentrating, and a feeling of intoxication.
-We recommend using filament types shown on the FELIXprinters
website. Examples PLA, PETG, ABS-X, Glassbend etc. Other types may be
toxic; please follow instructions from the filament supplier.
Caution with heater elements
-There is a potential risk of burn, as the print head can reach
temperatures of up to 275°C and the heated bed of up to 105°C.
-Don’t place objects on the heated bed, not even when the printer is
turned off.
-Always let the printer cool down for at least 5 minutes before doing
maintenance or modifications.

8Preparation for printing
Calibration.
IMPORTANT: Only PERFORM BED LEVELING after unboxing. The printer is already fully factory calibrated.
Bed leveling: This tilts the bed in the software so the distance between nozzle and bed is the same everywhere. When to do
this?:
1. After unboxing/moving printer.
2. When you see first layer printed lines are deviating from width across the print surface.
XY and Z Nozzle calibration: These calibrations align the printheads with respect to each other to get an optimal dual head print.
When to do this?
1. After exchanging a hot-end
2. When you clearly see that during dual head printing the nozzles are not aligned in x,y or height.
