Since I may not use the machine for several days, and then when powered up it's usually lots of jogging and positioning prior to running. I like to give the system a shot of oil before moving it around so I have to remember to turn the spindle on, press the override for a few seconds, then home the machine and start playing. Of course remembering to do this would have also allowed me to remember to crank the manual one every few hours too....
