1.3 Hazards
Electrical safety
The external power supply should not be tampered with. If due to a defect replacement is needed, it should only be
replaced by the original type
A mains socket with protective earth/ground terminal must be used. Make sure that the building installation
has dedicated means of over-current and short-circuit protection. Please use a circuit breaker with a current
rating not exceeding 16A. For more information, please visit our website for the CB-certicate.
Always unplug the product before performing maintenance or modiciations, unless explicitly stated otherwise
for certain (maintenance) processes.
Mechanical safety
The Ultimaker 2+ Connect contains moving parts. Install the (optional) Ultimaker 2+ Connect Air Manager to ensure
a protective barrier from moving parts during operation, especially if operated near children.
Pinching and entanglement hazard. Do not reach into the top area of the printer during operation due to a
pinching hazard. Do not lean over the printer during operation due to risk of entanglement of hair, jewelry,
and/or scarfs. This may cause minor pain, but no signicant injury to the user is expected from pinching or
entanglement by the drive belts.
Crusing or pinching hazard. The force of the build plate is limited but may cause minor injury, so stay out of
the reach of the build plate during operation.
Always unplug the product before performing maintenance or modications, unless explicitly stated otherwise
for certain (maintenance) processes.
Risk of burns
Hot surface hazard. There is a potential risk of burns: the print heads of the Ultimaker 3D printers can reach
temperatures above 200 °C, while the heated bed can reach temperatures above 100 °C. Do not touch either of
these parts with your bare hands. This symbol is placed on the print head and on the glass build plate to warn
the user about this risk.
Always allow the product to cool down suciently before performing maintenance or modications, unless
explicitly stated otherwise for certain (maintenance) processes.
Emission hazard
During 3D printing, , Ultrane Particles (UFPs), Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), and other chemical
substances may be emitted. Above certain concentrations (Threshold Limit Values, TLV), these emissions
can pose a risk. Concentrations are inuenced by the lament and adhesive used, print conditions (e.g. print
temperature), room volume, Air Exchange Rate (AER), and number of printers in a room.
Ultimaker products are designed for use with Ultimaker materials and are open for use with materials from
third-party suppliers.
