I do the same. I oil the bobbin race before starting sewing and with every bobbin change it gets cleaned and a drop of oil again.

My quilt machine I clean and oil the bobbin area after every bobbin change and I don't turn it off for the same reason you stated. My sewing machine I don't turn off either when cleaning the bobbin area. Wouldn't be able to see well without using a small flashlight.

Mine has the "lock" feature so the needle can't move while it's on. I use a surge protector and never think to unplug it. Is this something I should be doing? I don't turn mine off to clean, but I do use the lock.
