Maintaining your tufting machine is essential to ensure it runs smoothly and efficiently for years to come. In this blog post, we'll focus on the advanced care of your tufting machine using 3-in-One lubrication oil, as demonstrated by Geoff in his informative video. Proper lubrication is a crucial aspect of machine care that can significantly extend its lifespan. By following these steps regularly and storing your machine correctly, you'll enjoy seamless tufting for the long term.

**Step 1: Gather Your Supplies**
Before you start, make sure you have all the necessary supplies ready. You'll need:
- 3-in-One lubrication oil (or similar machine oil)
- A lint-free cloth and a small new paint brush
- Your tufting machine's manual for reference (if available)

**Step 2: Prepare Your Workspace**
Ensure you're working in a clean and well-ventilated area. Clear any debris or dust from the machine to prevent contamination during the lubrication process.

**Step 3: Identify the Lubrication Points**
In Geoff's video, he demonstrates the specific areas of the tufting machine that require lubrication. 

**Step 4: Apply Lubrication**
With your lubrication points identified, carefully apply a few drops of 3-in-One oil to each location. Be mindful not to over-lubricate, as excess oil can attract dust and debris.

**Step 5: Operate the Machine**
After lubricating the necessary parts, run the tufting machine for a few seconds to allow the oil to distribute evenly. This will help ensure that all moving components benefit from the lubrication.

**Step 6: Clean Excess Oil**
Use a lint-free cloth or a small brush to wipe away any excess oil. This step helps prevent oil buildup, which can lead to problems down the line.

**Step 7: Store Your Machine Properly**
