Section 11: Engraving Machine Cleaning
The following photos show cleaning and lubing of the X-axis rail.
Use a soft cotton cloth or
cotton swab to clean the entire
length of the X-axis rail.
This photo shows a cotton
swab cleaning out the top
groove of the X-axis rail.
There is another groove on the
bottom side of the rail.
You will need to move the X-
axis belt out of the way to
access the rail. There is
enough flex in the belt to move
it out of the way, but do not
pull on it so hard that it
becomes stretched or stressed.
After cleaning the rail,
place about an inch long
bead of Epilog supplied
grease into the top and
bottom grooves of the X-
axis rail. The following
photo shows where to
grease the bottom groove
of the rail.
After applying the grease
to both grooves, run the
X-carriage over the
grease to work it into the
bearing block and rail.
Turn the machine off to
easily move the X-
carriage back and forth
over the grease.
