This page will discuss tips and hints that we've found useful for Dragon users who experience various difficulties with their machine and/or components.
Marker Slippage
- Sometimes the markers placed in the marker holder slip freely and fall out of the holder. We recommend a black or silver Sharpie for this. If the Sharpie still slips out of its holder, wrap the marker in tape (we use electrical, but any tape will do) to ensure that it is held securely in the marker holder.
Rail Maintenance
- To ensure that your rail/beam remains in pristine condition and operates up to our standards, make sure to wipe off any dust or debris from the top of the rail daily (before usage) and wipe down with WD-40 at least once every other week.
Frayed or Broken Z-Axis Cable
- In the event of a fraying or broken z-axis chain/cable, the part must be replaced. This will require a careful and attentive read through of the instructions contained in the link below.
