Even if you are familiar with earlier FlashForge machines or 3D printing technology, we still recommend that please read this g uide, as there is lots of important information about the WHITESMITH for you to get a better 3 D experience. 3D PRINTER users for their unremitting efforts and sincere assistance. Preface Note: Each device must be tested before leaving factory. If there are some residues in extruder or some tiny scratches on the build tape, it is normal and won’t affect the printing quality. On the completion of this User Guide, thanks all FlashForge engineers and the FlashForge 02 For a better and more successful printing experience, you can refer to the following materials: Quick Start Guide: Users will find the Quick Start Guide together with the printer accessories. The Quick Start Guide will help you start your print journey as soon as possible. Official FlashForge Website: www.flashforge.com The official FlashForge website contains the up-to-date information concerning FlashForge software, firmware, device maintenance and so on. Users are also able to get the contact information from there. Keep your work place tid y. Do not operate WHITESMITH in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.

In case of uncertain accident, please unplug the device if you do not use it for long. P ersonal Safety Do not touch the nozzle and build plate during printing. Do not touch the nozzle after finishing printing. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Do not operate the device while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. C autions Do not leave the device unattended for long. Do not make any modifications to the device. To lower the build plate before loading/unloading filament. (The distance between the nozzle and build plate should be kept for at least 50mm) Operate the device in a well-ventilated environment. Never use the device for illegal activities. Never use the device to make any food storage vessels. Never use the device to make any electrical appliance. Never put the model into your mouth. Do not remove the models with force. 04 Environment Requirements Place Requirements Filament Requirements Filament Storage Legal Notice The device must be placed in a dry and ventilated environment. The distances of the left, right and back side space should be at least 20cm, and the distance of the front side space should be at least 35cm. Device storage temperature: RT 0-40°C Do not abuse the filament. Please make sure you use the FlashForge filament or the filament from the brands accepted by FlashForge. Nozzle clogging and damage may be caused by non-FlashForge filament due to inappropriate material properties. All polymers degrade with time. Do not unpack filament until necessary. Filament should be stored at clean and dry conditions.
