NOTES

This User Manual is designed to start your journey with the MakerBot®

Replicator®2X Experimental 3D Printer in the right direction. Your

MakerBot Replicator 2X is optimized for ABS, a traditional thermoplastic

that can be tricky and unpredictable. In order to achieve great results,

you will need to experiment and tinker. That’s why it’s so crucial to take

the time to learn about your new machine.

In this manual, you will learn how to set up and start using your Replicator

2X. You will also be introduced to Thingiverse and MakerWare. By the time

you ﬁnish reading, you will know everything you need to start experimenting.

We are so excited to welcome you to the MakerBot community.

Let’s get started!

Welcome

This safety alert symbol precedes each safety message in this manual. This symbol indicates

a potential safety hazard that could harm you or others or cause product or property damage.

CAUTION: In case of emergency disconnect power supply from wall socket.

CAUTION: The socket outlet must be located near the equipment and must be easily accessible

CAUTION: The Replicator 2X melts plastic during printing. Plastic odors are emitted during this

operation. Make sure to set up the Replicator 2X in a well-ventilated area.

The MakerBot Replicator 2X Experimental 3D Printer makes solid, three-

dimensional objects out of melted MakerBot Filament. Your 3D design

ﬁles are translated into instructions for the MakerBot Replicator 2X and

read by the machine via SD card. The MakerBot Replicator 2X then heats

the MakerBot Filament and squeezes it out through a nozzle onto a heated

surface to build a solid object, layer by layer. This method is called Fused

Filament Fabrication [FFF].

HOW IT WORKS

9WELCOME

When you set up your MakerBot®Replicator®2X Experimental 3D Printer,

remember that it was built and packaged very carefully at the MakerBot

Factory. We hope you’ll take your time and be just as careful unpacking it

and getting set up.
