Lubricating the two Main Rails will prevent oxidation (rust) and debris
build-up, allowing the Printer Assembly to travel freely. This will help
prevent registration issues that can occur in multiple pass prints.
To correctly lubricate the Main Rails, apply a very THIN coat of the 2.
same Lithium-based grease used for the Rail Guides. Spread the White
Grease along the ENTIRE length of both Rails using a clean, lint-free
cloth. DO NOT use any other lubricate, such as WD-40 or Machine Oil,
or you risk contamination of the Rail Guides.
Do Not Lubricate the Drive Screw
The Drive Screw MUST NEVER be lubricated or wiped
off with a chemical solvent. This is due to a special
coating that has already been placed on the Drive
Screw to prevent dust buildup that could potentially
hindertheuidmovementofthePrinterAssembly.
Treating the Drive Screw will allow dust buildup,
contaminating the drive mechanism.
