Make sure you check and change the PTFE tubing regularly. I was printing PETG-CF over the weekend and went to start a regular PLA print and it failed to make it to the extruder. :thinking: noticed the filament on the counter right away. Easy fix, just retract the filament and replace the tubing. It’s good practice to keep some on hand! It wore through right where it exits the CFS unit.

more or less how often?

my maintenance table says «each month» (720 printing time) but on my 800 hours maintenance, all tubes where fine like first day.

Does anybody used the «low friction» tubing?
