4. Pull filament out of cartridge to expose about 12 inches of
material. You should easily be able to pull out the material.
NOTE
The above step makes sure that the filament will feed freely from
the spool.
5. With the cutter from your Startup Kit, snip the filament flush
with the end of the cartridge (see Figure 11 on page 34).
CAUTION
Be careful when touching the pinch roller
on the side of the cartridge. If you roll it
backwards, you could draw the material
into the cartridge (see Figure 10 for the
correct direction to move the cartridge
roller).
If this occurs, there is no way to retrieve
the filament without opening the
cartridge and exposing the material to
humidity, which reduces shelf life to a
few days.
