Technical Tip -
Keep powder containers closed when not in use to keep powder dry.
Scoop powder carefully to minimize airborne powder.
Make sure that you carefully vacuum up excess powder. It only takes a minute, and the tidier the machine is, the
less often it will need maintenance!
Carefully read the Material Safety Data Sheet for powder before use.
WARNING: Use only powder supplied by Z Corporation. Use of any other material may
impact the performance and/or safety of your Z406 System and will void warranty of
equipment.
