Different models has different configuration ,Here we give only a common configuration,It is based on our testing. The parameters above except Nozzle size and Filament can be changed, the other can be changed according to the actual situation. 13 MostFun 3D printer www.mostfun.cc Loading and changing filament Before loading print materials, you must perform the following steps 1. Heating the extrusion to 200℃。 (after the extruder heated, the temperature is high to 200 ℃, do not touch to the nozzle position, so as not to burn ) Drag a module in cura Randomly ,Wait for transcoding completed ,you can see the icon Click this icon ,it will pop up a print control interface . Set the Temperature at 200℃,then Press enter: Observe the temperature curve, waiting for the temperature reached 200 degrees,then perform the latter operation .(Do not touch the extruder) 2. Insert the pipe into the black clip 14 MostFun 3D printer www.mostfun.cc 3. Insert the PLA into the pipe from the back of the printer. 15 MostFun 3D printer www.mostfun.cc 4. Press the extruder arm,Insert the PLA wire into the extruder. 16 MostFun 3D printer www.mostfun.cc 5. Feed the PLA with the hand, Observation of silk of nozzle, Wait for the nozzle’s uniform wire,release the extruder arm. 6. Put the black clip into extruder and rotate it. 7.Now you have load PLA successfully. If the print material is not easy to load, you can according to the following tips check: 1.Ensure that the nozzle is heated to a suitable temperature. (Please observe the software, do not go to thetest by hand ) 2.To trim PLA wire head ,The head should be cut into a sharp, contribute to its loading. 3.Force the PLA wire is inserted into the extruder . 4.Let PLA wire straight into the extruder. 17 MostFun 3D printer www.mostfun.cc Leveling the print platform For the first time to use MostFun Sail, you need to build a level platform .To level you need go into the control interface.
