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
service 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.
