Troubleshooting Tips

• Filament Slippage: Check the idler tension and ensure the filament guide is properly aligned.
• Filament Grinding: Reduce the tension on the extruder gear and ensure the filament path is clear of obstructions.
• Inconsistent Extrusion: Recalibrate the E-steps and adjust the flow rate in your slicer settings.
