M201 - Mixer blocks after a couple of minutes
Posted: Sat Jun 11, 2016 3:38 pm
I've just finished putting together the M201 and managed to get about half a millimetre into a cube print before flow stopped from the nozzle. I've tried increasing the temperature to clear it, reducing the temperature, increasing flow rate but it was just stuck. I cannot force filament through manually and the extruder motors just click, unable to push more filament in.
I disassembled the hotend and removed all the plastic, cleared the nozzle with a guitar string and reassembled everything. I got the same issue - plastic extrudes for a couple of minutes and then stops.
I have no idea what's up. Does anyone have any suggestions? Any replies will be much appreciated.
