Propane furnace maintenance

Have been looking for information on what maintenance needs to be done on my furnace, nothing comes of my searches, doesn't seem to be a filter, have been using it more this year.

It's a Atwood mobile mod# 8535-IV-DCLP

Thanks

Other than checking that electrical connections at the furnace (outside access door) are clean and tight, the only other thing I do is twice a year, put two drops of light-viscosity machine oil (Sewing machine oil works well) on each side of the motor.  I just use a long, thin screwdriver to put the oil all the way in there.  The oil will wick into the bushings.
