Other than the wiki page/video below, does anyone have other guides on how to dismantle the CFS inlet parts ?
Looking for how to clean - maintain this part, the back gears seem fine, the 4-1 lines are clear, the little switches near the 4-1 is clean and working, yet CFS is still grinding up filaments.
The loader motors are a PITA to get at as the “pack” of all four have be removed from the CFS just to get at and one of them . I’m going to be replacing all 4 of them today. My problem is not “jamming” but “not loading” on loaders 2/3 (1/4 working fine). On 2/3 I can hear sensor click and the blue sensor light lights up but it does not grab the filament. Sometimes I can even hear the loader motor turning on 2 (it’s very quiet) so I suspected something has stripped or loosened. Have opened up the CFS multiple times and removed loaders 2/3 and had a good look at them. On loader 2 there was a tiny socket grub screw on one of the gears that was loose but tightening that up made no difference although I noticed it immediately became loose repeated retightening made no difference. I dont know why. Have even swapped working loader from 4 into the 2 position and VV and nothing changes, Its like the “filament present” signal from loader 2/3 is not getting back to the control board. All very confusing. When I replace the loaders I’m going to take loader 2 apart to see what’s going on. Might make a vid.
Now can say been there have the t-shirt…
Tis “a bit fiddly” doesn’t really do it justice…
Support were good, I’ll give them that… Didn’t have to spend hours going down wrong avenues, as I showed that the entire system works via filament buffer even via side spool… Just CFS jamming grinding and not the back gears,.so had to be loader assembly related.
After that “experience” I’m off to find STL’s for filament loading pre-cleaners…
