Cleaning and Lubrication of the Motion System
The linear bearings and leadscrews should be cleaned and lubricated periodically. Time periods
between cleaning and lubrication will depend on the materials being processed and the amount of time
per day the machine is used. The Z-Axis is exposed to more debris than the X and Y-Axis. Clean the Z-
Axis at least once a month and lubricate the linear bearing every 3 - 6 months when the machine is
under moderate usage. The X and Y-Axis bearings and leadscrews should be cleaned and lubricated
once every year.
Procedure
The X and Y-Axis of the motion system are under the top cover. Remove the 4 screws securing the
cover.
Lift the cover off the machine.
