Before lubricating the leadscrew and carriage
rack (see Figure 76), clean them first with min-
eral spirits. Use a stiff brush to help remove any
debris or grime. Apply a thin coat of oil along the
entire length of the carriage rack. Use a stiff brush
to make sure oil is applied into the leadscrew
threads and both end brackets.
Note: In some environments, abrasive material
can become caught in the leadscrew lubricant and
drawn into the half nut. In this case, lubricate the
leadscrew with a quality dry lubricant.
