Does anyone have a nice PDF or link I can follow with regards to maintaining my printer (Ender 3 V3 SE). Such as what lube and/or grease to use, where to apply each, how often etc. How to tension belts etc.
Newbie and would really appreciate it

Unfortunately, I have never seen any definitve maintance schedule for this machine or any other, I can offer you my option.
At 400 hours operation, clean and relub the Y-axis liniear berarings. You may have to remove them to do this. Clean and relub the Z-axis leadscrews. Check the tightness on all fasteners. Check belts and retighten if needed. Make sure all fans are working and clean blades as needed. Check Z-axis rollers. Consider replacing at 1,000 hours.
If you are running your machine in a chamber with a high ambient temperature, maybe do all this every 200 hours.
This is my opinion anyway.
