Ok so I have had my gMax 1.5+ for almost a year and a half and I love it.. Since I purchased it I have added the heated bed and a BLtouch.

The question I have is in regards to maintenance. I am getting a slight squeak when the printer is doing the auto bed level sequence when the Z axis is moving. I have looked through the User Guide and I did not see any recommendation for lubricating the Acme lead screws. I was thinking about using a silicon spray but wanted to see if anyone else has had the issue.

Any help in eliminating my squeak would be highly appreciated.

Thanks Kyle,

I don't have the Nylon blocks with the tension adjustments. I'm assuming this is an upgrade part and I should order one for each lead screw?
