should be removed. When the filament is removed, let the hot-end fully cool down.

Turn off the FELIX Pro

Disconnect the cable that connects the hot-end to the mainboard. Carefully pull the connector away from

the socket.

the fan duct to which the cable is fixed take it off this hook first.

6Place the new tip

Now that the old tip is removed, place the new tip and lock it firmly into its place.

Place the new nozzle and turn it in by hand.

To prevent the nozzle from leaking it’s best to heat up the hot end with a hot airgun or a

lighter and then tighten it a little more after that, be careful you don’t burn yourself

though. If you still see some leaking you can tighten it in the machine while it’s on

temperature for the material you want to print.

7Reconnect the hot-end to its cables

Put the cables into their slots again and carefully lock them with the small screws. Check that the cable

goes to the right side away from the handle.

Do not put too much pressure on the thermistor and heater but just

enough to feel the cables are locked in their places.

8Put the hot-end back into its slot

Firmly push the hot-end into its slot. Make sure it is pushed in all the way to the back. Push till you hear a

‘click’ sound. This means the hot-end is in the correct position.

5. Pull off edge connector of corresponding print head, do NOT pull the wires, there is also a small hook on

the fan duct to which the cable is fixed take it off this hook first.

6. Open the cover in front.

7. Rotate slightly to right

8. and Then pull out print-head

9. Reverse the assembly of the hot-end into the extruder assembly. Do not forget to close the lid.

IMPORTANT: Ensure the hot-end wires make the bend as shown in picture above

10. Please do the following two extruder calibrations, if you wish to properly print with dual head.
