I'll start with pointing out the one mistake I noticed. When inserting the spring I believe the tab comes to the end with screw. You placed it in the wrong end. It was originally in the wrong end and you were able to pull the gear out because of that before removing the top screw. All in all great video and helped me step by step doing the job. And btw the funniest moment was when both of us pulled the toothbrush out at the same time. I smiled there. Great video thank you.

Your videos have been phenomenal for getting maintenance done on my X1C, as well as helping me solve problems. With every one of your videos I watch, I become more comfortable at understanding my printer and figuring things out on my own.
So thank you fo your time, thank you for the CLEAN and CONCISE instructions, and you have my subscription sir.

Where were you a month ago when this happened to me?! I watched another video that wasn't anywhere near as instructive....thanks so much for sharing.

[juliodiaz]

Man I cleaned my first clog a few months ago and I wish I had this video lol 10/10

Really useful video thank you. Just curious about one thing and that is how none of these gears need any grease? I just cleaned mine after 1 year and had none of the black grime you had in yours. That looks like grit from metal grinding on metal to metal. In the bambuwiki it recommends lubricating the gears and pivoting points on the mechanism. Pretty important step actually as IPA completely degreases the gears.

Loving your videos, so helpful for beginners.Suggestions for when the ptfe tube won't come out of the extruder?

[brianrichards]

My extruder electric hook up's don't match what you have but it also doesn't match what the bambu wiki has mine must be the updated version. Your video was very helpful minus that part and i don't know whose fault at bambu that is. thanks for the help!

[RoccoBoxer]

Fantastic video. Super helpful. Thank you.

Bit late with watching this, but your video will be more help than the Bambu Wiki, so well done for making it. My E3D Obsidian 0.6mm nozzle got clogged yesterday, as did the extruder using PETG-CF. It was right awkward to get out, but all is good now, and I really cannot complain as it's been in almost two years this is the first time I've had a nozzle clog/extruder blockage, compared loads with old E3D V6 style hotness in lower end printers.
