The Z-Axis Linear Bearing and Leadscrew are accessible by opening the spindle cover and should be
cleaned with a clean cloth or a brush.
Lubricate the Leadscrews by using a Teflon-free Silicone Spray Lubricant. A light coating is all that is
necessary. Make sure components around the leadscrews are protected from over spray. HINT: Use a
paper towel and tuck it behind the leadscrew to protect surrounding areas from over spray.
All linear bearings have a grease fitting to lubricate the bearings and bearing rails. Use a hand pump
style grease gun with Lithium based grease. The grease fitting fo the Y-Axis is shown below.
