9.4.4 Cleaning and Maintenance
Expert maintenance and regularly cleaning (e.g. every 2-3 weeks) main-
tains the value of the Ruthmann-Steiger.
Strong air pollution, salty air (e.g. at the coast) and other climatic conditions
may require under certain circumstances a more intensive care of the
Ruthmann-Steiger. Especially after having been in contact with abrasives
(e.g. salt in winter) the Ruthmann-Steiger should be cleaned, since other-
wise the paint could be damaged and constructional components could
corrode.
The Ruthmann-Steiger may only be cleaned from outside by means of wa-
ter and vehicle detergents customary in commerce. Scouring agents, sol-
vents, turpentine and benzine etc. are not allowed.
When buying and using cleansing agents you should also
consider the ecofriendliness. Rests must be disposed as
hazardous waste depending on their pollution class. Only
clean the Ruthmann-Steiger on suitable washing places.
Danger!
Cleansing agents can be harmful to health!
Cleaning agents and care products must be kept always
surely!
Before cleaning the Steiger with water, steam beam (high pressure water
cleaner) or cleansing agents all those openings have to be covered or
glued over, in which - for reasons of safety and / or function - no water,
steam or cleansing agents is allowed to pour in. Particularly in danger are
control boxes, sensors, (limit switches, proximity switches, etc.) and valves.
After cleaning all covers or stickers must be removed completely.
Attention!
Electrical constructional components, switch boxes etc.
must also not from outside be cleaned by means of a
high-pressure-cleaner ! Use soft cloth, sponge or similar
for cleaning purposes!
