===== About =====

The F270 is a fast and precise filament fed fusion deposition printer. It is typically set up with ABS and a soluble filament that is dissolved in a heated caustic bath. 
----


===== Safety Concerns =====

  * The print heads can be very hot - do not touch them with bare hands unless positive they are cool.
  * As with any automated machinery make sure that your body is clear of the moving parts to avoid injury.
  * The support removal tank for the F270 is filled with heated caustic chemicals that dissolve the support material. An apron, gloves, and a face shield must be worn when inserting and removing parts or basket from tank.
