 ===== About ===== ===== About =====
  
-Insert Text Here!+After your FormLabs print has gone through the FormWash, the resin should be cured in the FormCure, a UV curing chamber. Each resin has a specific hardening curve that can be found within the reference material. This will help you indicate the ideal time and temperature to be set on the FormCure.
  
 ---- ----
  
-===== Detailed Specifications =====+===== Safety Concerns =====
  
-Insert Text Here!+  * Allow at least half an hour for IPA to evaporate before placing part in FormCure 
 +  * Allow time for the Form Cure to cool off before removing parts 
 +  * Do not operate form cure with lid open
  
 ---- ----
  
-===== Safety Concerns =====+===== Operating Procedures =====
  
-Insert Text Here!+  - Any part to be cured needs to be washed in the FormWash with IPA BEFORE being placed in the form cure. Supports can be removed before or after curing process. 
 +  - Wait 30 minutes after washing to allow all remaining IPA to evaporate 
 +  - Check the reference material for selected resin to determine ideal time and temperature for curing 
 +  - Use the dial on the front of the FormCure to set time and temperature 
 +  - Place part within the FormCure-> press start.
