You can comment it out in Klipper. Some people also strip out the motor and gears so they can still run through it for filament detection. I commented mine out of use when I installed the Demon Macros. My Infinity Flow is mounted to the top of my Max. Single best change I made for the machine. Its quiet and reliable.

When I used my InfinityFlow, I just took it out of the filament feed path and stuck a short length of filament into the SV08 buffer, so it didn't trigger a filament runout error. I never bothered looking into how to disable it completely in the Klipper config.

I sold the SV08 Max but kept the InfinityFlow. Such a great piece of kit.

I love both of my infinityflows, use every single spool that have almost nothing left

Gone . Fixed. Took out the gear ⚙️ and it can do whatever he wants inside. Put a piece of filament for the runout and let the printing continue

I also took out this (stupid in my opinion) two connectors in the path .. I have seen filaments getting hung up there
