8.2.3 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 semi-regular basis. Use a small amount of light grade machine oil or PS2 grease to a
paper or cotton towel and apply to the rails.
You can purchase PS2 grease from NSK dealers worldwide. Please visit
http://www.nsk.com/eng/company/network/index.html
for additional information.
NOTE
•
Always clean and lubricate the rails after working with materials that produce
lots of debris (such as wood).
•
Too much oil or PS2 grease applied to the X / Y rails will accelerate the build up
of debris.
