hi guys

i have not fully set up my printer yet still waiting on parts but today i ran some filmet thought just to make sure it was pushing it out the bottom but every now and then the extruder will frezze up and will only keep going if you push it with your hand any ideas to fix it


sorry if that is a bit of a noobie question

Thanks prairiewolf

what part failes here. does the motor keep turning, and do the gears move, is it an issue with slipping feedstock? if it is feedstock that is slipping then increase pressure to idler. what is the temp. recommended 190-200 c for pla, and 230+ c for abs
