Cleaning
Keeping your Strength units clean is an important component of preventative maintenance and the overall aesthetics of your product. While your clients will appreciate clean equipment free of sweat, dirt and other contaminants proper care and cleaning will extend the life of your product and reduce premature aging and wear. See the maintenance schedule for recommended frequency.
• For general cleaning: A solution of 10% mild soap with warm water applied with a soft damp cloth OR
Formula 409 applied to a cloth then wiped onto the upholstery.
Note – do not use cleaners that contain solvents, alcohol or abrasives.
• For disinfecting: 1:10 Bleach/Water mix. After cleaning, rinse area with clean water, then dry with a clean, lint-free cloth. Failure to remove chemical residue will cause discoloration of the coated fabric surface to manifest earlier in the life cycle of the product
• Inclusion in this document does not imply “fit for use.” Customers should first determine if products are appropriate for use on their surfaces
• Should other cleaning methods or products be employed, carefully try them in an inconspicuous area to determine potential damage to the material. Never use harsh solvents or cleaners which are intended for industrial applications. To clean stained or soiled areas, a soft white cloth is recommended. Avoid use of paper towels.
CAUTION: Cleaning products may be harmful/irritating to your skin, eyes, etc. Use protective gloves and eye protection. Do not inhale or swallow any cleaning product. Protect surrounding area/ clothing from exposure. Use in a well-ventilated area. Follow all product manufacturer’s warnings.
