Did I read somewhere that someone’s A1 mini gave them an alert when the machine needed oiling? Was just wondering if this was a think as I havent got one after 2 months 
I’ve seen the Lube Y alert 3 times now…last one was yesterday.
I got the 1st alert about a week after I started printing, the 2nd about 3 weeks later, the last was months later.

For me it happens only after printer reboot
does it appear as an alert on that little robot face? Ive never had one :-/
It’s a popup on the screen…you can choose “Later” or “Done”.
If you choose “Later” it will tell you on next reboot.
How odd that I’ve never seen it yet
Just fired up my new mini today and right after the firmware update it prompted me to oil the y axis.
I got mine roughly month after booting the printer up for the first time, so thought it’s a ‘timed maitenance’.
I got mine within a week of assembling the printer, not knowing that it’s a random message.
Now I’m wondering when the next oiling should be done!
My assumption was that it would just pop up after x hours of printing or time. But I’ve yet to get one 2 months in
Just had my A1 tell me to lube the Y-Axis yesterday. Very simple.
Easy to complete using the instructions provided through a QR.
Maybe has something to do with the recent firmware update?
Got mine immediately after the first print, no reboot

Mine did exactly the same thing. I just turned it on for the first time today.
I’m wondering if it’s because I have the habit of turning off the machine as the print ends and don’t always press ok? If I do that does it just cancel any notifications?!
If you have one, you will see it when you start the printer.
