DO NOT use any lubricant other than silicone, as it may become sticky and cause a buildup that can cause mechanical
failure.

What not to lubricate
Many of the bearings and assemblies in your engraving machine are sealed and/or coated using special low-friction
methods and should not be lubricated.
DO NOT attempt to lubricate the spindle or the spindle bearings. If you suspect lubrication problems, call your
dealer/representative for instructions, as further lubrication may harm the machine.
DO NOT oil the X or Y stepper motors. None of the motors on the MAX Engraver require lubrication. Oiling the
stepper motors can permanently damage the motors.
