CARE AND MAINTENANCE
As with any fine musical instrument, reasonable care is necessary to protect your
investment. Normally no difficulties should be experienced, as only the finest component
parts are used by Rodgers. If your instrument should require service, your Rodgers Service
Representative is fully equipped and qualified to handle any service problems which may
arise.
Your new Rodgers organ is not only a fine musical instrument, but also a fine piece of
custom-made furniture finished to hold its attractiveness through generations of use. Only the
best woods are used, carefully checked for uniformity of grain and intensity of figure and
carefully hand assembled. Each finish coat is thoroughly dried before the next coat is applied.
A final catalytic process protective coat makes the Rodgers console impermeable to many
harmful substances. The resulting finish is lasting and easy to keep looking beautiful.
Following are a few tips on caring for your Rodgers organ.

CONSOLE AND PEDALBOARD
A frequent dusting with a soft, clean cloth is usually all that is required. A fine quality
furniture oil will enhance the beauty of the wood. Always wipe the surfaces with the grain,
using straight, even strokes.
Since extreme cold, heat or exposure to sunlight may injure the finish of any fine piece of
furniture, neither the console nor finished speaker cabinets should be placed over a heat
register or near a window.

KEYBOARDS AND STOP TABS
Keyboards and tabs should be cleaned with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water and
a mild soap. Avoid dripping water between the keys. DO NOT USE SOLVENTS (alcohol,
gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, etc.).

PIPES ON PIPE-AUGMENTED INSTRUMENTS
To keep the pipes beautiful, refrain from handling them without gloves. The pipes should
never be handled or touched by anyone but a qualified organ service representative.
