Oiling
According to Dave White, use: Dry PTFE lubricant
- Low friction
- Non-toxic
- Non-stick
- Ideal for machine beds etc.
Do never use:
- Silicone
- WD40

Nozzle problems
If the nozzle drives into the print bed, then you are in trouble:
- You may have a damaged nozzle aperture
- Melted plexi glass inside
Use a 0.3mm drill to clean. If the damage is not to great you may try with a needle.
