Maintenance?

Clean all rods, then put fresh oil on the rods.(light oil).

Then calibrate the z axis.
Left and right side should reach the top at the same time, if not then the z axis were not level, then normally oil should help.(and z calibration).

Every few weeks you need to clean and put oil on the rods.

Also every month(if you print a lot), check all, yes all bolts and tighten.
Move the extruder with your hand to check if this not lose.

Search with google on maintaining a 3d printer.

And you could do a full calibration, normally not needed.
