Checking for smooth filament movement through a cold hotend without a nozzle is recommended prior to reinstalling the Rapido into the printhead. **The following is an example for the Rapido V1 hotend, but the process is the same for the V2. Take care to ensure you are using the correct orientation for the V2, the following image just explains the process.**
