Wax Filament

I want to print with wax filament and the recommended temp is 140 - 150, but my extruder will not run at temperatures that low. How do I get it to work?

RE: Wax Filament

I to am trying to print wax filament. I read your comment on adding the M302 line to the Gcode. I put the line of code in the template custom G-code portion of the printer settings. 

The system is setting the temperature to 140 (the temperature I'm trying to achieve) but the extruder is not turning. 

Would you have some guidance on what I'm doing incorrectly?

Thank you
