Hi, love the printer but have a small issue.
My filament was about to run out so I tried to retract it out to load new filament (maybe that was my mistake?). All went well until it got to the very end then it got stuck, I guess the filament near the hotend had expanded and cooled. I tried helping it out by tugging slightly but the filament broke off. I now have a 1cm long piece of filament loose in the tube. Can I pull the tube off at one end then push it back on after? I am maybe being too careful here since I don't want to putt too much force on the printer.
Thanks for the help

Re: Filament stuck in the bowden tube
1.You need to use a longer ejector cleaning the Teflon tube
2. Replace a new Teflon tube

Re: Filament stuck in the bowden tube
If it's inland Filament from Microcenter, that is the main problem... that white pla is gunky as fu*k... I have to print at 210C to keep it moving smooth and it always clogs the head when I change..
You can use a skewer to clean the line after you remove it.. or get another one from ebay or wish.
