WARNING: The MakerBot Replicator 2X Experimental 3D Printer generates high temperatures and
includes moving parts that can cause injury. Never reach inside the MakerBot Replicator 2X while
it is in operation. Always allow the MakerBot Replicator 2X to cool down before reaching inside.
WARNING: Do not leave the MakerBot Replicator 2X unattended during operation.
CAUTION: If opening the MakerBot Replicator 2X for service, ensure that the power supply is turned
o and the cord is disconnected.
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 User Manual, you will learn the basics of
the MakerBot Replicator 2X, as well as how to unbox
it safely and get it set up. Chapters C through E will
take you through calibration, printing, maintenance,
and troubleshooting.
We are so excited to welcome you to the MakerBot
community. Let’s get started!

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 sent to the machine via USB cable or SD card. Then the
MakerBot Replicator 2X 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].

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.
NOTE: Do not force or tear anything during unpacking and setup.
This may damage the MakerBot Replicator 2X.
