Missing PFTE tubes?

Post by Teocali » Wed Jul 27, 2016 2:45 pm

Hello,

I assembled the G2S Pro kit, and on my first attempts to print....PLA oozing everywhere.
I disassembled the hotend to clean it, and discovered there is no PTFE tube inside the 'throat'. Nor is there one in the second hotend.
Since this is the 1.75mm hotend, it should have a PFTE insert?

There should be a PTFE tube in it, I think you can contact the seller for it.

Contact seller.....Yeah, I've been trying. I bought directly from Geeetech, and have yet to get a response from 'sales' or 'tech support'.

had the same Problem on My G2S Pro kit.
The PTFE tube from the Extruder Motors to the hotend fit in the threaded rod.
I cut a Piece and put it into the threaded rod.
Tip: cute the ptfe tube 1 mm longer than the threaded rod.
Why? look here.
