Lubricating the Threaded Rod and the X-Axis Idler Pulley
After approximately 50 hours of build time, you should lubricate the threaded rod on your
Z-axis and the X-axis idler pulley. To lubricate the threaded rod and the idler pulley:
1. Find the tube of PTFE-based grease
included with your MakerBot Replicator 2.
2. Grasp both sides of the build platform
and push it gently to the bottom of the
MakerBot Replicator 2.
3. Use a clean, lint-free rag [or your finger]
to spread the PTFE-based grease onto the
top section of the threaded rod.
4. Make sure you get the grease inside of
the threads themselves.
5. Grasp both sides of the build platform and move it to the top of the MakerBot Replicator 2.
6. Use a clean, lint-free rag [or your finger] to spread the PTFE-based grease onto
the bottom section of the threaded rod. Make sure you get the grease inside of the
threads themselves.
