  • When you press the pause button, there may be a situation in which the remaining filament continues to come out. At this time, you do not pull off the remaining filament, because it is the inertia of the motor. You only need to wait for the remaining filament to complete, then you can take off it and continue to use it.

  • When you want to quit the filament, press and hold the unload button for 2-3 seconds, then the filament will slowly come out. Please note that do not pull the filament with hand.
