Description

Print Settings: First layer height: 0.16 mm All other layers: 0.08 mm *It is important to print at exactly this layer height Color & Swaps: This model uses 5 colors: Green, Yellow, White, Red, Black. Since most auto filament change systems (AMS, CFS, etc.) only have 4 slots, here’s the trick: once a color is no longer needed, you can replace it with the next one. For example, after printing the first few layers in Green, and swapping to Yellow, you can safely pull out Green and load Black into that slot. In your slicer, just assign Black to the “Green” slot so the machine knows what to use later. Easy!+ Start with Green At layer #3 (0.32 mm) → switch to Yellow At layer #7 (0.64 mm) → switch to White At layer #9 (0.8 mm) → switch to Red At layer #19 (1.6 mm) → switch to Black At layer #20 (1.68 mm) → switch back to White At layer #21 (1.76 mm) → switch to Red for the rest of the print Assembly Notes: The only sensitive spot is the pivot/attachment area. Make sure it prints cleanly — defects here can make the fan open less smoothly. When putting it together, don’t over-tighten the end cap (the threaded piece holding everything). Find the sweet spot: not too tight, not too loose. That way the fan will open and close effortlessly
