# Weekly maintenance

* The MultiCam CNC machine should be cleaned thoroughly each week.
* The filter on the control box should be vacuumed. Any build-up in the racks or rails should be blown out.
* The filter or filters on the vacuum holddown systems should be removed and cleaned.
*  Some older routing systems use a Lead Screw on the X- and Y-axes. These systems should be lubricated with a non-aerosol, silicon-based lubricant. 
* Using anything other than what is recommended may lead to premature wear of the Lead Screw.
