5. Lubricate the top carriage-wheel strip from end to end on the rail (moving the carriage to clean the full length of the rail). The included oiled rags can be reused until there is no clear surface remaining on the rag (rags should be replaced every 3 months). Clean these surfaces weekly or more frequently, depending on the amount of debris in the environment. CAUTION: Do not add additional oil to the lubrication cloths. The cloths are created to distribute a very thin film of oil. If too much oil is deposited, oil pockets can cause friction with the carriage wheels, which will produce output anomalies. Figure 1 Top carriage-wheel strip 6. Lubricate behind the top area of the rail where the carriage wheels contact. Figure 2 Back of top carriage-wheel strip 7. Using a lint-free cloth and isopropyl alcohol, clean the lower carriage-wheel strip from end to end on the rail (moving the carriage by hand to clean the full length of the rail).
