RAME
The frame should be cleaned periodically with a damp cloth or alternatively with the addition of a soft
detergent. After that it should be wiped with a dry rag. The frame should be regularly inspected to find
damage to the paint which may cause corrosion, and to identify loose fasteners. In case of visible frame
damage (cracks, painting defects etc.) contact ROWHEELS for diagnostics and maintenance. Normal dirt
on metal and plastic parts can be removed with standard cleaning agents and a sponge or soft rag. Use
only cleaning products which are suitable for cleaning and disinfection (no solvents or abrasives).
