Changing hot ends
Changing hot ends
I'm trying to change the hot end on my M2 to print with a different filament (Flex Polyester). I have the old one unplugged and the fans out of the way, but when I try to slide it out of the extruder mount it doesn't want to move. It rotates freely but I'm afraid if I pull too hard I might break something. Is there a trick to it? If I need to apply force what's the best place to hold for leverage?
Re: Changing hot ends
this is kinda silly but do you have the filament all retracted?

ROFL! Nope! I think I'll, uh, go give that a try.jimc wrote:this is kinda silly but do you have the filament all retracted?
Edit: What do you know, it worked. Thanks, Jim!
