MAINTENANCE MANUAL

Frequency

The removal of loose rubbish and surface dust should be performed on an 
as needed basis, generally about once a week depending on usage.

Do 

It is good business to protect the investment in your Act 
Global Sports Surfacing System. To do this most effec-
tively, Keep it Clean. Act Global sports surfacing systems 
are designed to resist both wear and exposure to the 
elements. The effectiveness of their materials, design 

and construction is demonstrated by the long life of fields 

under heavy use in many climates - north and south, wet 
and dry, hot and humid / cold and dry. The following are 
the most obvious precautions:

•  Control Access to your Act Global sports surfacing 

system.

•  Keep your Act Global sports surfacing system and 

close adjacent areas clean and free of litter, mud and 
debris.

•  Post signs prohibiting smoking and carrying food or 

drink onto your Act Global sports surfacing system.

•  Observe load limits for static and rolling loads, espe-

cially when surface is wet.

•  Repair minor damage promptly.
•  Follow suggested care and maintenance procedures.
•  Contact your local Act Global representative for as-

sistance with repairs, renovation work, or any further 
technical details.
