MAINTAINING YOUR LOFT
Periodically inspect for cracks, breaks, loose
parts, missing parts, and/or malfunctions.
Check caps to be sure they remain tightly
screwed down. Remove the product from ser-
vice when any condition develops which might
make operation unsafe.
You can wash the wooden parts of your loft, but
remember, wood and water are natural enemies.
Don’t soak; work fast, use a stiff brush with soap
and water (or a detergent, as you would for
washing dishes).
When cleaning plastic surfaces, do not use harsh
detergents or cleansers. These may scratch or
mar the surface. Nontoxic household plastic
cleaners should work well. Test a small patch of
the plastic surface before full application.
If you plan to store your loft, remember it is
made of wood, and needs to be stored in a
dry place.
