The wick is the little piece of felt in some bobbin areas that hold oil and wick it to the parts that need it.

Cleaning the machine involves getting as much as the lint, dust, ect out of the machine. Also oiling your machine, changing the needle that sort of thing.

I have this attachment and it does work quite well. Remembering that you have it and where it is is the hardest part. I like the crevice tool the best.
