3D printed parts or nooks and crannies to improve the curing quality of the
model.
Notice:
- The handheld UV lamp needs to be plugged into the interface on the right side of the machine (Make sure the switch is turned off before plugging). After plugging in, press the switch to light up the lamp for use.
- Do not stare directly at the ultraviolet rays during use, and be sure to wear safety goggles.
- Do not irradiate the same place of the model for a long time to prevent excessive curing (The curing can be completed when the model surface is dry and not sticky).
- The continuous use time shall not exceed 15min. It is normal for the curing lamp to heat up slightly during continuous use. You can stop using first and let it cool down before reusing.
MERCURY XS BUNDLE Operating Instructions
MERCURY X WASH and MERCURY XS CURE can work at the same time through the
dedicated adapter that comes with the machine, and the operation mode of the
two machines is the same. Please take off the blue protective film on the
decoration belt of the machine before use.
Long press the
screen for 3s to turn on or turn off the screen, press the screen briefly to
start or pause. After setting the time, the screen will display the time you
set, and when the machine starts working, the time displayed on the screen
will start counting down from the time you set until it goes to zero.
MERCURY X WASH Operating Instructions
MERCURY X WASH is designed for cleaning printed models. Please turn on the
power first and then long press the button to start the machine.
1. Open the sealing lid of the cleaning bucket, add an appropriate amount of
washing liquid (the washing liquid can exceed the model and the height of the
washing liquid must not exceed the maximum scale), then place the cleaning
bucket in the positioning slot on the machine platform.
2. Please submerge the model in a suitable way in the washing liquid of the
cleaning bucket. (It is forbidden to put the model directly into the cleaning
bucket for cleaning, otherwise, the model and the parts of the cleaning bucket
will be damaged.)
MERCURY X WASH Operating Instructions
a: When the model is within the size of 180mm121mm153mm, you can wash the
model with build platform. First remove the lid of the cleaning bucket, put
the cleaning basket into the cleaning bucket, and then set the cleaning basket
bracket into the cleaning basket until it stuck at the bending point of the
cleaning basket, and then place the model with platform upon the bracket, (Be
careful not to bump the model during placement.) and finally seal the lid.
(The Mercury X Wash machine supports MARS2 series and MARS3 models with
platform cleaning, but it is necessary to remove the cleaning basket and use
only the cleaning basket holder to clamp the platform, besides, two platforms
can be cleaned simultaneously.
However, it should be noted that since there is no restrictive measure for the
Mars series build plate, the platform is easy to fall when placed unstably, so
it is best to remove the model and put it in the cleaning basket for
cleaning.)
MERCURY X WASH Operating Instructions
b: When the model is out of the size of 180mm121mm153mm, then you should
clean the model without build platform. Please remove the lid of the cleaning
bucket first, put the cleaning basket into the cleaning bucket without the
bracket, take the model off the platform directly and put it lightly into the
cleaning basket, and finally seal the lid.(Please be sure that the model is
placed as flat as possible in the cleaning basket to prevent the sharp corners
of the model from going over the grid at the bottom of the cleaning basket and
hitting the wheels).
3. Turn the knob clockwise to set the
cleaning time, and press the screen briefly to start leaning the model.
4. The machine will beep when the cleaning is finished. Please take out the
model for air-drying. After cleaning, please remove the cleaning bucket, take
out the cleaning basket and cover the cleaning lid (the washing liquid can be
used for several times). If the washing liquid spills on the machine body,
please clean it up quickly to avoid short circuit caused by the washing liquid
flowing into the machine body.
MERCURY XS CURE Operating Instructions
MERCURY XS CURE is specially designed for curing the printed model. For the
first use, you need to install the curing lights on the machine by using the
tools supplied with the machine. First insert the terminal of the lead wire
from the machine shell into the interface below the curing lights, put the
extra wires into the machine, and finally use the tools and screws supplied
with the machine to fix the two curing lights respectively to the recess of
the machine shell. Then turn on the power and long press the button to start
the machine.
MERCURY XS CURE Operating
Instructions
- Align the curing turntable with the turntable positioning slot in the center of the body platform and place it tightly.
- Place the air-dried model in the center of the curing turntable.
- Put the anti-UV lid on. Turn the knob clockwise to set the curing time. Press the screen briefly to start curing the model. Due to the slow rotating speed of the turntable, there is slight shaking, which is a normal phenomenon.
- The machine will beep when curing is completed.
Machine Maintenance
-
Recycling of washing liquid
When the washing liquid in the bucket is reused more than 30 times, we need to filter and clean the waste. First, leave the washing liquid to stand for about 10 hours, and then after the waste has settled to the bottom of the cleaning bucket, pour the washing liquid on the upper layer of the bucket into another container, then clean the waste at the bottom of the bucket (the waste would be converted into ordinary solid waste in sunlight), if necessary, the bucket rotor can be removed for cleaning.
-
Clean the impeller of the cleaning bucket
After the cleaning bucket has been used for a period of time, the rotor at the bottom may rotate abnormally due to the sediment, then you can remove the rotor for cleaning.
