1. ALWAYS USE BUILD TAPE.
2. Ensure your build plate is level before
every object.
3. Ensure spool is installed properly and
can rotate freely.
4. When using your Dremel 3D40 for the
first time or after changing filament, allow
Dremel 3D40 to extrude until material is
consistent with the installed filament
color.
5. It is important to watch your Dremel 3D40
begin building objects. Your object is
most likely to experience difficulty in the
beginning. Thankfully, this is also the
most convenient time to cancel the
object, clean the build plate, and start
your object again. Remain near the
Dremel 3D40 during the building process.
6. It is important to save your Dremel 3D40
packaging as it will make re-boxing and
transporting your Dremel 3D40 easier.
7. Ensure that you store filament spools in
an environment that is not moist or too
hot. It is recommended that you do not
remove the filament spool from its airtight
packaging until use.

UNCLOGGING THE EXTRUDER

Use the unclogging tool to clean the extruder
and unclog built up filament, figure 15.
1. Wait for extruder to heat up, insert the
unclog tool into the extruder intake (top).
2. Clogged debris will be pushed down and
will extrude from the extruder tip.

Best Practices

8. Use object removal tool gently to avoid
damaging the build plate or object.
9. Whenever possible, it is best to locate
your object in the center of the build
plate. Using the best orientation for your
object is critical. Ensure that your object
is located on the build plate and that you
are using the best orientation for building.
10. For steep overhangs (Less than 45
degree angle) it is recommended to build
with support.
11. Always remove the build plate before
removing the object.
12. Low speed sanding is recommended to
prevent remelting of the object.
13. The Dremel Digilab 3D Slicer software
will display the length of filament required
for each object. Compare this to the
length indicated on the spool length
gauge.
