I know there are several topics on stuck material but I have read them and tried the solutions to no avail. I have PVA material stuck and I mean REALLY stuck in my #2 print head. The extraction motor snapped the material trying to extract it and I can pull it and lift the whole Ultimaker 3 Extended off the desk without out it budging and this is with the head heated to max temp (yes the Bowden tube was removed so I wasnt pulling on that). Also tried pushing it through and no luck there either. Dont want to pull any harder for fear of bending something out of whack permanently. Did a print last night and was stuck this AM. Only the third item I have printed and was the first with any real size.

Hello,
I know there are several topics on stuck material but I have read them and tried the solutions to no avail. I have PVA material stuck and I mean REALLY stuck in my #2 print head. The extraction motor snapped the material trying to extract it and I can pull it and lift the whole Ultimaker 3 Extended off the desk without out it budging and this is with the head heated to max temp (yes the Bowden tube was removed so I wasnt pulling on that). Also tried pushing it through and no luck there either. Dont want to pull any harder for fear of bending something out of whack permanently. Did a print last night and was stuck this AM. Only the third item I have printed and was the first with any real size.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
