According to the troubleshooting section in the help center, they state, “Misalignment of the hard stop hooks may cause a clicking noise during peeling. To resolve this issue, gently bend the hooks so that they slide into the square holes next to the peel motor during each peel cycle.” This sounds like my issue, but I don’t want to go bending things around without knowing for sure what I am doing…

Do consult the support before doing this, though.  
Of course, lubing the lead screw won’t hurt either, although it should already be lubed out of the box. Teflon grease usually works nicely (i prefer it to oil as it doesn’t flow everywhere).
