Weird song when the plate moves

[William63]

Hello there !

I bought an Mars 2 months ago, and till know it works like a charm.

Recently it starts making some "cronk" noise each time the plate start to move, when I print. Is it a problem from the motor, or it indicates that I should lubricate the axis ?

I do not have experience, so I prefer to ask before doing something stupid.

Many thanks !

lubricating the axis is not a bad idea ;-)

Ok thanks. I read in a previous post that you use lithium based lubricant. Should I use specifically this kind of lubricant ?
