4 Changing the Septa Remove the print heads from the carriage. Remove the fast axis from the machine Cover the binder hose plug with paper towels and secure with a rubber band. Place a paper towel inside the assembly to soak up any stray binder. Pull all the binder tubes loose from the septa. Note- make sure you have your paper towels handy. When the tubes are pulled from the septa, binder will leak from the tubes Spectrum Z510 Preventative Maintenance Procedure 4/12

5 Remove the four e- rings that retain the septa. Note be careful not to lose the plastic washers that are attached to the top side of the septum. Old septum shown with the four plastic washers that must be re-installed on new septa before installation. Septum being removed. Note The plastic washer tends to stick to the carriage. Do not lose them Spectrum Z510 Preventative Maintenance Procedure 5/12

6 Install the septum (septa). Note you will have to insert the L shaped connector in the hole first by holding it on an angle, and then straighten it out as the connection area passes the hole. Make sure each has the plastic washer attached. Hold the septa in place, and attach all four e-ring clips. Loop the yellow tube over the top of the clear. This lessens the amount of pinching force on the base of the yellow tube. Some carriages may have the yellow tube going under the clear. If so, please re-route at this time. Re-attach the binder tubes Spectrum Z510 Preventative Maintenance Procedure 6/12

7 Clean all the pogo connections with the alcohol crush tubes. Clean up any binder on the bottom of the carriage, and make sure the alignment window is clean. Re-install the Fast axis module and pull several syringes of binder through the septa to clear all air bubbles. Re-install the print heads (purge if new heads) Run an autoalignment Spectrum Z510 Preventative Maintenance Procedure 7/12

8 Service Station Wiper Remove/Replace This is the service station wiper. It is one of the components in the maintenance kit. Raise the old wiper up and out of the way. Remove the two hex screws that mount the assembly into place. Note The ZPrinter 510 and ZPrinter 650 use the same wiper assembly, and the mounting screws and method is the same Spectrum Z510 Preventative Maintenance Procedure 8/12

9 Remove the squirter block, clean it and clean the holes with the tip of the syringe tool. Clean the holes from both sides. Align the rubber wiper with the holes in the squirter block and wrap around the block Spectrum Z510 Preventative Maintenance Procedure 9/12

10 Once aligned, insert both mounting screws into place to hold the assembly together. Tighten both screws evenly. (see next picture for clarification) Note The ZPrinter 510 and ZPrinter 650 use the same wiper assembly, and the mounting screws and method is the same. As you tighten the two screws (alternate to keep the pressure even) you will notice that the rubber bulges out from underneath the mount. When properly tightened, the rubber will extend by nearly 1/8 inch. This should be a visual indication that the pressure is even on the two screws and the assembly is tightened enough. Return power cord to system, power up the system Spectrum Z510 Preventative Maintenance Procedure 10/12

11 1. SET UP: From ZPrint, choose Bleed Air from the service menu, then click Start (this will move the carriage to the front of the machine and prevent it from auto parking even when you close the top cover. The safest option is to power down the printer and manually move the carriage to the front, right side of the deck. Testing the flow rate Cover propped up to not crush tubing 2. CHECK: Make sure there is some binder in the bottles for the line you are testing. 3. INSERT: Clamp the test tubing near the syringe and insert the print head fitting into the septum 4. PRIME LINE: Carefully open the clamp to allow the test tubing to fill with binder 5. Dangle the tubing (still clamped) outside of the machine; using a shim (a bottle cap, pen, etc.) close the cover making sure the seal doesn t compress the testing tube. 6. Position the syringe so that the end of the tube is close to the same height as the control panel. 7. TEST: Release the clamp and let the binder drip into the collection syringe. Reclamp the tube at 30 SECONDS. 8. Record and compare the amount of binder collected in the syringe (reading ml) to the chart. 9. Should get 8-10 ml/30 sec. (depends on how much binder is in the tanks) If you get within this range you do not have a flow problem! End of tube close to deck level Syringe with plunger removed Spectrum Z510 Preventative Maintenance Procedure 11/12
