| The weight of the machine is evenly distributed over the installation area. In upright position the centre of gravity is below the machine centre, thus preventing toppling by vibration and normal application of force (e.g. closing the build chamber door). The adjustable feet provide optimal alignment and a stable stand.\\ | The weight of the machine is evenly distributed over the installation area.

| Do not open the build chamber during or immediately after completion of a print job. The build plate heating shuts down after finishing a print and cools down to chamber temperature. **Always wait** at least 10 minutes before removing the printed object. This is also to avoid stress cracks due to sudden temperature drop.\\ | Do not open the build chamber during or immediately after completion of a print job.
