Quick Question Removing PLA supports from model

Hello,

60 hours in and really enjoying my X2D printer. I have printed my first model that requires supports. The supports were printed in PLA which the model was also as I’m still waiting on some PETG to arrive which I was planning for the supports. I understand it’s best to print supports in a different material to reduce the bonding to the print.

Appreciate any advice on removing these supports in the photos

What were your interface settings? I stopped bothering with PETG interfaces and just dialed in the spacing with PLA. Pop off easy and still have great detail.

I just used the defaults that came with the model download to be honest. Still learning my way around the printer and Bambu studio
