Cleaning the hotend

Post by eddyuk » Mon Jun 08, 2020 2:29 am

Is there a way to clean a hotend of A10T?
I used only 1 extruder for a long time and other 2 was not loaded. I tried to print multicolor and noticed that I can't push the filament into other 2 hotend entries. Then I noticed that both tubes were filled with something. I was able to extract those from tube, they were black mass probably pushed during prints for some reason. But now I see that I can't push PTFE tube into 2nd and 3rd extruder hotend. There is blockage of probably same mass. Is there a way to get rid of it somehow?

Hi,you need to clean the hot end, if it is still blocked, it is recommended to replace the new hot end.
