I have just built my first 3D printer a Delta Rostock mini G2s, calibrated and ready for my first print. I am using Repetier-Host V1.6.1
My first problem is getting the filament in to the print head. I assume it feeds in via the top connector on the Extruder motor. I can only feed in about an inch and a half of filament. That`s with pushing the lever on the side down.
Any help most welcome on how to feed it in and should you be able to manually feed it in to the print head.
I cannot find any help on this subject in either of the manuals provided by Geeetech.

yes push down the lever and manually plug in the filament from the top of the extruder and down to the end of the hotend, sometime might need to remove the fan on the extruder to help you see it clearly.

Thanks for that Mark.
I also realised that by taking out the feed tube to the hot end helps. It is a tight fit and is easier to feed the filament in this way.
Up and running now getting to grips with all the printing settings.
