Im new to the 3d-printer-world and also have limited knowledge of maintenance and stuff like that. I knew that I would have to do some kind of maintenance on the P1S but I havent thought about what specificly I would have to do and also when this task has to be done. As I scrolled through the Makerworld I stumbled upon several maintenance tools like these:
So my question:
Is there a maintenance plan which I should follow? What should I do regularly?
Of course keeping in mind that it depends on several condtitions like how often do I print and how many earthquakes hit you…
Of the tools the only one really of value is a toolhead hook, but I don’t think that one will work with the P1P/S, as the hotend wires are on the RHS. You should pick one that hangs the toolhead on the RHS.
I’ve had mine about a week (60 print hours lol) and had to deal with a clogged extruder. There is a “Gear Removal Tool” part you can print that you might need linked on Extruder Clog | Bambu Lab Wiki (stl). I’ve printed one now and would be very annoyed if I had needed it. (Luckily, I didn’t).
Also, the 1.5 Allen key in my box didn’t fit the the cutter lever screw properly - luckily I had a spare bike key but that was fiddly so I am getting a proper set as I imagine this is something I’ll have to deal with occasionally.
One of the approaches on Nozzle clogs | Bambu Lab Wiki also needs a lighter - this I have to buy, as the nozzle tool didn’t resolve the leftover clog (and bent itself trying), so I will probably be buying both a lighter and more nozzle clog tools.
