VII. PRODUCT MAINTENENCE
The following suggestions will help ensure safe and successful
product use.
Cover maintenance
Whitmyer pad covers zip on and off for washing. Hand wash with
mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, and air dry for best results.
Cover replacement
We stock replacement covers for all our products. If covers
become too worn or too soiled, replacement is recommended.
Foam pads
Foam pads that are subject to daily use will wear out and lose a
degree of the initial comfort afforded by the cushions when the
pads were new. The foam pads are attached to the system panels
with a hook and loop fastening system, making replacement with
our re-foam kits a simple process.
Mechanical components
Check the following items monthly to ensure safe and functional
product use:
1. Check tightness of all fasteners and hardware attachment
points.
2. Inspect all parts for signs of wear. Pay close attention to
plastic, vinyl, and fabric components. Check all straps and
cords for stretching and wear.
3. Inspect metal parts for signs of wear, fractures, bent parts or
excessive flexing.
4. Replace and repair any parts showing wear.
