Apr 24, 2020 at 13:39 | comment | added | FarO | @Stefan it's filament from over 4 years ago... and once dried at too high temperature. It prints fine, but there are likely microcracks which make the filament snap when stretched. | |

Apr 24, 2020 at 10:18 | comment | added | Trish | it can, but it also can be a bad filament path with a sharp bend. | |
Apr 24, 2020 at 9:24 | comment | added | Stefan | Would PLA snapping when left in overnight be a sign of bad or expired filament? It's connected like this (forgot to add this detail earlier) | |
Apr 24, 2020 at 9:10 | comment | added | FarO | Nozzles are consumables. If you don't know the age (in "spools") of the old one, don't even ask and replace it. | |
Apr 24, 2020 at 9:08 | comment | added | FarO | Be careful with Z calibration: just like the other ones, it's better if you just calculate the theoretical value and stick to it. Also, I use 5 years old 3 mm PLA (after drying it in a silica filled box) with no problems, it only tends to snap if left stretched for a while, so I remove it from the extruder when not in use | |

Apr 24, 2020 at 7:36 | comment | added | Tom van der Zanden | That "black hole" on top is the grub screw ("threaded pin" in the Chinglish instructions). It can be tightened with a hex key to lock the drive gear to the motor's shaft. | |
Apr 24, 2020 at 7:33 | comment | added | Stefan | How would I do this? The gear has a small black hole on top but I can't find it's use. The manual only says this about it: "Push the feed knurl onto the axis of the actuator and attach it with the threaded pin. Apply threaded pin with threadlocker varnish. The motor axis must end flush with the upper edge of the feed knurl." | |

Changed layout and added description to the images. Replaced second image with one that shows black hole in the extruder.

Apr 23, 2020 at 22:24 | comment | added | 0scar♦ | If the stepper spins, but not the extruder gear ("feed knurl"), you need to tighten the grub screw. | |
