NOTES

  1. Do not use the printer in any way other than described herein in order to avoid personal injury or property damage.
  2. Do not place the printer near any heat source or flammable or explosive objects. We suggest placing it in a well-ventilated, low-dust environment.
  3. Do not expose the printer to violent vibration or any unstable environment, as this may cause poor print quality.
  4. Before using experimental or exotic filaments, we suggest using standard filaments such as ABS or PLA to calibrate and test the machine.
  5. Do not use any other power cable except the one supplied. Always use a grounded three-prong power outlet.
  6. Do not touch the nozzle or printing surface during operation as they may be hot. Keep hands away from machines while in use to avoid burns or personal injury.
  7. Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when operating the printer. Such clothes may become tangled in the printer’s moving parts leading to burns, possible bodily injury, or printer damage.
  8. When cleaning debris from the printer hotend, always use the provided tools. Do not touch the nozzle directly when heated. This can cause personal injury.
  9. Clean the printer frequently. Always turn the power off when cleaning, and wipe with a dry cloth to remove dust, adhered printing plastics or any other material off the frame, guide rails, or wheels. Use glass cleaner or isopropyl alcohol to clean the print surface before every print for consistent results.
  10. Children under 10 years of age should not use the printer without supervision.
  11. This machine is equipped with a security protection mechanism. Do not manually move the nozzle and printing platform mechanism manually while booting up, otherwise the device will automatically power off for safety.
  12. Users shall comply with related nation and region’s laws, regulations, and ethical codes where the equipment or produced prints by it is used, and users of our product shall not use aforesaid products to print any end-use products, objects, parts, or components or any other physical prints that violate the national or regional laws, regulations and ethical codes where herein referred product and produced prints by it is located.

Preheating Method 1
CREALITY CR 6 SE 3D Printer - fig 12 Note: The UI information is only for reference, the actual UI may be different.

Preheating Method 2

Note: The print preheating standard is adjusted at the factory, PLA preheating standard: nozzle temperature 200 °, hot bed temperature 60 °, ABS preheating standard: nozzle temperature 240 °, hot bed temperature 70 °. If you need to adjust it due to printing materials or other reasons, you can adjust the parameters on the interface home page to control → the temperature → PLA / ABS preheat setting.

When you wait for the temperature to rise, hang the filament over the filament holder.

Load Filament

When the current temperature reaches the target temperature, the consumables pass the material breakage detection and are inserted into the small hole of the extruder until the position of nozzle. If the consumables flow out at the nozzle, it means that the consumables have been loaded.
CREALITY CR 6 SE 3D Printer - fig 16 Tips:
How to replace the filament?

  1. Cutting filament near the Extruder and slowly feed new filament until they are fed into the new filament.
  2. Withdrawing the filament quickly and feeding the new filament after the nozzle was preheated and filament pushed a little forward.
