NOTE
• Always clean and lubricate the rails after working with materials that produce lots of
debris (such as wood).

• Too much oil applied to the X / Y rails will accelerate the build up of debris.
Tip
Please clean the AutoFocus pin each time after completing the engraved job to
make sure the AutoFocus pin is free to move.
7.2.2.2 Lubrication of the X / Y Rails
In order to keep the motion system running smoothly, the X / Y rails of the motion system will need
lubrication on a weekly basis. Use a small amount of light grade machine grease to a paper or cotton
towel and apply to the rails.
