Ender 3 V3 Print Head Maintenance

      • To remove the cover, you need to use a 2mm Allen key and remove the screws on either side.

      • To detach the shroud, push upwards a little too lift the shroud over the securing pins on the top, then pull away.

      • One the shroud starts to come free, be careful because the fan is on a short lead

    1. Ender 3 V3 Print Head Maintenance, Cleaning the extruder: step 2, image 1 of 1
      • The extruder has a rubber cover

      • Going to the hot end are four wires in two pairs. One pair I think is for the thermocouple to measure nozzle temperature. These look like solid copper wires and are on the front. There are two wires wrapped in a white cotton-like sheath (I've no idea what these are for) - but these wires are very delicate and you need to be careful
