The Pantograph
The beam moves the hoop left/right (the X-axis) and forward/backward
(the Y-axis). To keep the beam assembly in good condition, you must lubricate it with
sewing machine oil regularly as described in the following schedule. Placing a clean,
soft cloth under the lubrication points when possible will help keep the machine
clean.
