Detach Models from Build Platform

CAUTION

Risk of injury: As handling chemicals puts you at risk of coming into contact with corrosive chemicals, being burnt, inhaling poisonous vapors, etc., always put on suitable protective clothing (gloves, protective goggles, etc.) before working with construction substances.

Take utmost care to avoid getting any chemicals in your eyes or breathing the chemical vapors in. Always wash your hands thoroughly afterwards with soap and water only. Don't use Isopropyl alcohol to wash your hands if you come in contact with materials.

Take care not to spill any chemicals.

Once the job is complete, the printed models hang off the build platform.

  1. Place the build platform on its side in the processing zone as shown in the diagram below. Watch the material so it doesn’t leak into the build platform cavity. Ensure the magnet stays clean.

  1. Hold the build platform handle with one hand to steady the platform.

  2. Use the scraper from the Starter Kit to gently detach models from the build platform. Angle your tool roughly 30 degrees from the platform and move the blade while applying a slight amount of pressure.

Tip: If the model doesn’t begin to separate easily, move to a different area on the model, working your way around the model until it safely dislodges from the build platform.

  1. Place each model on a paper towel to catch the excess material as it drips.

Tip: Note that the models appear to be glossy. This is because uncured material is covering the surface.
