General Safety Information
This User Guide contains important safety guidelines that should be followed during installation and
operation of Zortrax 3D printers. It also mentions situations which require special attention and in-
cludes warnings against negligence and misuse that could cause damages or injuries.
Always read safety data sheets available at: https://zortrax.com/materials/zortrax-m-series/. They are
a source of basic information and safety procedures for the equipment you bought. It is essential to
update the rmware so as to avoid any kind of failures. Visit our website: https://zortrax.com/ regu-
larly to learn about the latest news and updates.
Zortrax 3D printers operate at high temperatures and have easily accessible movable components,
therefore, you must be particularly careful when handling or operating the devices. While operating
the printer, it is extremely important to avoid situations that may lead to burns or interference in
proper functioning.
Do not leave the machine unattended during the print job - check it periodically for proper func-
tioning in order to avoid potential accidents or breakdowns. Turn o the printer once the print job is
nished.
Monitor your device for wear and tear regularly. Contact our Support Center at: http://support.zor-
trax.com/ for assistance while replacing worn or broken parts.
Keep the printer away from heat sources, re, ammable materials, humidity as well as water and
other liquids. Place the machine away from any equipment emitting radiation. To prevent any inad-
vertent use, keep the device out of reach of children and animals. It is forbidden to shake or drop the
printer as it may cause breakdowns. The equipment is not intended for use in a potentially explosive
environment.
Health and Safety at Work
All service and maintenance activities as well as device operation require wearing safety gloves includ-
ed in the Starter Kit. Wearing safety gloves is also advised while removing the nished print from the
platform.
We strongly recommend setting up a special room dedicated only to 3D printing and ensure proper
ventilation in it. At the same time, we do not recommend staying in a room where devices have been
3D printing for a long time. The vapors released during the printing process do not pose a direct haz-
ard, but they can have negative eects when combined with accumulated dust particles in long-term
processes.
