PLA stuck in the Isolator guide

Vertex 3D Printer Vertex - Issues while printing
1

I have bene printing on my k8400 with success.
I made quite a few nice items and i am wrestling with a perfect printout of martian (the little key chain).

After i made a print today, the 2nd print there was no pla coming out of the print head.
I’ve read the forum on how to de-stuck the nozzle, but on disassembling it became clear that it was the isolator guide.
There is a peice of pla stuck in the top of the isolator guide.

is there any wisdom on how to get it out? or on where to get a new one?

thanks in advance

Never mind, got it out by pushing a peice of pla on top of the peice that was stuck… nailed it :smiley:

That’s the way to remove it… Take the opportunity to check if your PTFE tube is at the exact right size.
