    Good morning!

    I am having some slight difficulties but in working through the forums I believe I have them figured out. One of the questions I have right now is about greasing the axis if they squeak OR if I'm having slippage issues (like what is happening to my y axis currently).

    I bought white lithium grease as was suggested on a different thread, I'm just not sure where all I should apply it.

    Thanks!

    To the smooth rods (both sides of the extruder) for the X axis. Then move it full stop a few times left/right.
