1. Glossary
The following terms and forms have been adopted and used in the manual.
• Print Bed – a chamber where the powder is sintered and where the 3D model is created.
• Feed Bed – a chamber that stores new, unsintered powder. From this chamber, powder is taken layer by layer into
the Print Bed.
• Cake – contents of the Print Bed after printing is complete. It consists of the printed model and the unbaked powder
around the model.
• IO BOX – In & Out BOX, a tool designed to pull a cake out of a Print Bed.
• Flight case – a special case used to ship the printer.
2. Safety information
2.1 SYMBOLS AND VISUAL CUES
WARNING!
An inevitably dangerous situation which can result in serious injury or even death. Initiation, or
omission, of a specic procedure as well as inattention, can cause severe physical injury to the
user.
ATTENTION!
Initiation, or omission, of a specic procedure can cause physical damage to the equipment or the
user.
WARNING!
Risk of electric shock which can be fatal or cause severe burns. An inevitably dangerous situation,
which can result in serious injury or even death, if not mitigated. Before working with any equipment,
you should be aware of the dangers associated with the ow of electric current, and become
familiar with the standard procedures to prevent accidents.
WARNING!
Compressed gas! The danger of suffocation!
Possibility of unsealing - gas has a suffocating effect on people by displacing oxygen from the air.
Too low oxygen concentration in the air can lead to unconsciousness and death, if not mitigated.
Inhalation exposure may cause short breath, breathing diculties, headaches and dizziness, with
high concentrations of gas disorders of orientation, nausea, fainting, loss of consciousness, death.
CAUTION!
IR laser radiation. Looking directly into the laser beam can cause blindness and skin burns. The
laser emits infrared radiation (infrared, IR), which is invisible to humans. Avoid eye or skin exposure
to direct or scattered radiation. Do not stare into the beam or view with optical instruments.
CAUTION!
High temperature – do not touch. Excess heat dissipation can cause burns.
CAUTION!
Beware of moving parts which can crush hands.

2.3 ELECTRIC DEVICES – POWER SUPPLY AND GROUNDING SYSTEM
WARNING!
• Before plugging in, make sure the power voltage and frequency are those shown
on the machine plate.
• When an extension cord is used for the power supply of the product, make
sure that the total power consumption of all devices connected to it does not
exceed the extension cord’s limit. Also, make sure that the total current drawn
by connected equipment does not exceed the ampere rating for AC wall outlet.
WARNING!
• Use only the power cable supplied with the product.
• Do not use power cables from other devices! Using the power cables from
other devices or connecting the power cables supplied with the product to
other devices may cause re or electric shock.
• The power cable should be placed in such a place that they are not rubbed, cut,
pulled or twisted.
• Pay special attention to the fact that the power cable is not bent at the points
of connection of the printer.
• During use, mind the power supply cables and avoid crushing or pulling these.
• Periodically check the mains power cable to ensure it is not damaged.
• In the event of the cable being replaced, make sure it is protected against
water spray and check mechanical strength.
• Disconnect the power cable whenever it is planned to shift/transfer the machine.
WARNING!
In the following situations, unplug the product from the power supply and contact
with Sinterit Support:
• the power cable or plug is damaged;
• some liquid got into the product;
• the product has been dropped or the case has been damaged;
• the product does not operate properly or clear changes in eciency have been
observed.
STOP!
• Never touch electric wires, switches, buttons, etc. with wet hands.
• Never pull the machine by means of the power cable. When connecting/
disconnecting the plug to/from the power socket always hold the cover, not
the cable.
• In the event of the cable being damaged, the machine must not be used.
• Never disassemble, modify or repair the power cable, plug, devices inside the
printer, except as described in the product manual.
• Do not place objects on the Power cable.
• Do not place Power cable in a path where people will have to walk or run.
ATTENTION!
It is recommended to use UPS units that, in the case of a momentary power failure, will allow the
printing process to nalise.
ATTENTION!
Industrial equipment, such as provided by Sinterit, must always be connected to a
grounded outlet to prevent electric shock in the event of a fault.

2.4 PRINTERS – GENERAL USAGE SAFETY GUIDELINES
WARNING!
Before printing, always make sure the printer is free of all external materials such as debris, oil,
equipment and other objects that could affect the operation and cause injury to people.
ATTENTION!
• During printing, if there is a lot of smoke, irritating smell or other alarming
circumstances take place, press the Safety button. It will immediately cut off
the power from the printer.
• However, remember that it is impossible to open the printer (e.g.: by lifting the
lid) until the temperature inside will not drop below 50°C and the UNLOCK LID
option becomes available.
WARNING!
INERT GAS INSTALLATION
Possibilityofunsealing -gashas a suffocatingeffect onpeopleby displacing oxygen
from the air. Too low oxygen concentration in the air can lead to unconsciousness
and death. Inhalation exposure may cause short breath, breathing diculties,
headaches and dizziness, with high concentrations of gas disorders of orientation,
nausea, fainting, loss of consciousness, and death.
• Store in a well-ventilated place.
• Do not inhale the gas.
• Nitrogen is an inert gas, a natural component of atmospheric air. It is not
harmful in the aquatic environment or soil, its adverse effect is limited to the
displacement of oxygen.
• The built-in oxygen level sensor is not a certied device and the signal cannot
be treated as the only warning. Keep the Lisa X printer and the inert gas bottle
in well-ventilated rooms.
• If you hear an alert, open the windows/ventilate the room and leave the room.
• If you feel any suspicious symptoms, immediately leave the room and go
outside/to a well-ventilated room.
ATTENTION!
LASER PROTECTIVE GLASS
• The cleaning process of the laser protective glass should be carried out outside of the printer.
• Do not clean the laser protective glass under running water.
• Only use products with ethyl alcohol. We recommend alcohol pads (available in the Service
Kit).
ATTENTION!
While the printer is working do not touch any other elements besides: the LCD screen, the emergency
stop pushbutton (E-STOP), the USB port and the power switch.

2.6 POWDERS – SAFETY WHILE WORKING WITH POWDER
WARNING!
• When working with the polyamide powder or other designated printer powder
for the Sinterit Lisa X printer, always wear personal protection dedicated to
this device (protective glasses, protective gloves, protective dust mask).
• When working with a powder, avoid inhalation or swallowing and contact
with skin and eyes.
ATTENTION!
• Polyamide powder should be stored in tightly closed containers (e.g sinterit metal container),
in a room at room temperature and low humidity.
• The powder should be stored out of reach of children and pets.
• If the device is not used for a long time, the powder should be removed from the printer and
stored in a sealed package (e.g Sinterit metal container).
ATTENTION!
When printing the smell of melting material may be emitted in intensities which do not affect the
health of users. However, in the case of long-term operation of the printer in a poorly ventilated
room, the smell may become unpleasant and irritating. Adequate ventilation is recommended in
order to create the best printing conditions.
STOP!
Do not attempt to burn/melt polyamide powder. The resulting sparks and hot mass
can cause severe burns.
Keep the powder material away from re.
STOP!
Do not dispose of in municipal waste! The used powder material should be stored
in sealed containers and disposed of in accordance with local policy of waste
plastic material.
