Refer to section 5 of SDS.

WARNING

Risk of electric shock: Disconnect power before servicing the printer.

WARNING

Risk of electric shock: Make sure all conducting components are in good order and condition. The switch cabinet may be opened by trained and authorized service personnel only.

Do not try to set up the printer yourself. Have the printer set up by trained and authorized service personnel only.

WARNING

Risk of UV radiation hazard: Use PPE, UV rated protective goggles, during calibration or when working with the Printer's projectors shining light.

WARNING

Risk of injury: The use of the materials intended for the printer may cause risks to the health and safety of the operator or third persons. To ensure safe handling of the materials, the hazard and precautionary statements shown in SDS must be observed.

WARNING

Risk of electric shock: Connect the printer to a grounded outlet.
Only use supply cord with plug acceptable in the country of use of the printer.

WARNING

Risk of injury from crushing caused by automatically moving printer parts: The printer may only be operated by instructed and specially trained personnel.
Make sure that all persons are clear of the danger zone.
The printer may only be operated if the protecting devices are working properly.

WARNING

Risk of injury: All emergency stopping devices and protection doors must be checked one by one and separately.
In case of defective safety equipment, shut the printer down immediately and secure it against being switched on again.
Do not bypass safety interlocks.

CAUTION

Burn hazard: Some parts inside the printer may be hot. Allow printer to cool down before touching any parts with burn hazard signs.

CAUTION

Risk of hand crushing caused by automatically moving printer parts: Always keep the doors closed when operating the Printer. The Printer may only be operated by an instructed and specially trained personnel. Servicing of the Printer shall only be done by trained and authorized personnel.

CAUTION

Risk of injury: Printer overturning during transportation can cause injury. Do not try to move the printer yourself. Have the printer transported by trained personnel only.

CAUTION

Risk of injury caused by improper handling of the build platform: Before taking the build platform out, make sure that all persons are clear of the danger zone. Respect pinch point warnings.

CAUTION

Risk of injury: Avoid unnecessary movements. Avoid non-ergonomic joint positions. Maintain a healthy posture.

CAUTION

Risk of injury: Risk for the operator to slip, stumble or fall. Keep the floor of the printer area clear of loose cables, objects, or liquids.

CAUTION

Burn hazard: Touching the hot light source might result in severe burns. Use heat-resistant protective gloves. Only authorized, trained personnel may touch the light source.

CAUTION

Risk of injury: As handling chemicals puts you at risk of coming into contact with corrosive chemicals, being burnt, inhaling poisonous vapors, etc., always put on suitable protective clothing (nitrile gloves, protective goggles) before working with construction substances.
Take utmost care to avoid getting any chemicals in your eyes or breathing the chemical vapors in.
Always wash your hands thoroughly afterwards with soap and water only. Don't use Isopropyl alcohol to wash your hands if come in contact with materials. Be careful not to spill chemicals.

CAUTION

Risk of injury from slipping, stumbling or falling of persons through loose cables, objects or liquids on the floor. Keep the printer area clean and dry.

Place all printer cables carefully to prevent trip hazard.
After repairing the printer, place cables back carefully to prevent trip hazard.
Remove tools and other objects from the printer.
Inform the personnel of residual risks.

CAUTION

Risk of injury: Improper use of the remote printer control over local network using VNC software may lead to damage.
Use the remote printer control with great attention.
Do not use the remote printer control without an operator next to printer. The printer owner is responsible for any unsafe operation of the printer using the remote printer control.

NOTICE

The printer may only be used for the intended purposes. The printer may only be operated if in a flawless state in terms of technical safety. Only then the operational safety of the printer is guaranteed.

NOTICE

Do not use materials other than the photopolymers delivered by EnvisionTec. Read the relevant Material Safety Data Sheets supplied with the materials before use.

NOTICE

The printer must be positioned on a flat and even surface to prevent the printer from moving.
Check the horizontal orientation of the printer at regular intervals. This can be done by use of a spirit level placed on the build platform. If the printer is not levelled any more, e. g. if it has suffered an impact, have the printer repositioned by trained and authorized service personnel.

NOTICE

Ensure that you put the RFID material tag into the material tag reader. Failure to do so can result in damage to the RFID material tag and material tag reader.

NOTICE

Do not try to touch or open anything on the screen before the Controller Software has finished booting. This can cause damage to the files on the printer.

NOTICE

Use a different material tank for each kind of material to avoid contamination.

NOTICE

Do not turn the printer off during software update.

NOTICE

Make sure the build platform is clean and the material tank has material in it before starting a print.
Failure to do so will result in failed builds and damage to the equipment.

NOTICE

Carry out the maintenance tasks according to the Operations Manual and the intervals specified therein.

NOTICE

Use 99% IPA away from the material tank and thoroughly wipe all IPA completely from the build platform before installing it back onto the printer.

NOTICE

Use of non-authorized chemicals in the material tank may cause contamination and material damage.

NOTICE

Do not adjust the position of the level sensor. This may result in false readings to the sensor and cause print failure.

NOTICE

Do not:

• Operate the printer with inappropriate materials.
• Exceed the technical values specified for normal operation.
• Make unauthorized modifications and changes to the printer.

For any damage resulting from such misuse the printer owner bears the sole responsibility. The manufacturer assumes no liability.
