Bread Machine Maintenance

I bought this little bread maker for $5 at a charity shop - nice clean little unit. When working, my machine started to smell like dry metal surfaces rubbing together so I went online to check for maintenance tips as there was nothing noted in the manual. I found a hint that suggested you use 3-in-1 oil or Singer Sewing Machine Oil, and apply one (1) drop of oil to the external base spindle of the bread pan every 3 months, or more often depending on usage. It will prolong the life of your machine and also let it run quieter. Check it out for yourself, as it had photos to guide you. I used an eye-dropper to apply the one drop.  Go to: http://www.breadmachinedigest.com/tips/bread-machine-maintenance.php, for guidance photos. If you look at the underside of your bread pan, you’ll see the bread spindle shaft. This does require oil on a fairly regular basis. You don't add any oil to the interior of the bread pan or the internal spindle, only add a drop of 3-in-1 Oil to the exterior shaft on the underside of the bread pan....check the photos.
