7 Care and maintenance
To avoid downtime, we recommend preventive maintenance of your LEADX Ultra CNC milling
machine. It is best to keep it clean and well lubricated at all times. We recommend performing three
types of maintenance for these machines: preventive maintenance, usage-based maintenance, and
condition-based maintenance. While we can guide you with preventive maintenance, usage-based
and condition-based maintenance are at the discretion of the user.
