3.3. Troubleshooting
Although we work very hard on minimizing possible troubles some might occur while or even
before operating the machine. In general these troubles can be tackled quite easily.
We listed 5 possible troubles that could occur and how you can to tackle them.
3.3.1. Transporting, Unpacking and Positioning the Xeed
Transporting
Think carefully before delivery or (local) pick up how to transport your Xeed to its final destination.
Xeed weighs around 75KG with outer dimensions: 900 x 580 x 640 mm.
Xeed + Crate + filament weighs up to 135KG with outer dimensions: 1150 x 980 x 850 mm.
On arrival at destination (office, facility etc.) we advise to move the Xeed as far as possible inside
its wooden protection crate preferable by a forklift or pallet truck.
Avoid (strong) vibrations and tip the machine as little as possible to secure its print quality
Unpacking & Positioning
Disassemble the crate preferably in such a way that the side and top panels are removed leaving
the Xeed standing on just the bottom panel.
Have preferably 4 people available to lift the Xeed and position the machine at around 1 meter
height on for instance a stable and strong table, cabinet or the wooden crate after rebuilding.
Avoid positioning the Xeed in wet, cold and windy areas to secure its print quality
3.3.2. Turning off and (re)starting the Xeed
Turning off the Xeed should be done by pressing the digital shutdown button on the screen in IcosI.
This will shutdown the screen and motherboard first. After this you can switch off manually the
power button at the back of the machine.
Avoid shutting down the Xeed with the power switch only, this might damage the motherboard
After pushing the shutdown button and switching off the power button wait around 5 seconds to
switch on the power button again. If you switch on to quickly IcosI might not start.
After turning off your Xeed wait at least 5 seconds before switching on your Xeed
If an error occurred in the turning off or restarting process you might see an alternative start up
screen, with a black background and white instruction letters. Follow up the instructions by
plugging in a keyboard in the USB port at the back of the Xeed and press the key applicable to your
situation.
