Lubrication of Moving Parts in Printing Process

In the printing process, it is essential to periodically lubricate moving and rubbing parts to ensure smooth operation and longevity of the equipment.

I didn't find any information from PRUSA on this topic. The only thing that can be done is to lubricate the vertical ball screw.

Why isn't there a disassembly and assembly diagram of the printer so that it's clear how to lubricate the mechanisms?

https://help.prusa3d.com/article/sl1-sl1s-maintenance_1951 :

" The tower (Z-axis consisting of the trapezoidal rod and the cantilever) requires little to no regular maintenance. In case the printer starts making unwanted noises when lifting or raising the platform, consider applying a lubricant on the trapezoidal rod - any good super lube will do the trick." 

We will do what we have always done. We will find hope in the impossible.
