OVERALL MACHINE MAINTENANCE
Maintaining the original appearance of your unit is important for two reasons:
1. It represents a big dollar investment for your recovery business and its appearance
should reflect that fact. A dirty machine is not professional.
2. Maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair is much easier to accomplish on a clean,
well maintained unit. Regular cleaning of the machine offers you an opportunity to
visually inspect all facets of the machine and spot potential problems before they
occur.
