Maintenance instruction for seesaw „melis“ Robinia
Item No. 51 2516 601
Annual main inspection
(in intervals of not more than 12 months):
1. In addition to the checks of the operative inspection, pay special attention
to the stability of the equipment (which may be affected due to corrosion or
vandalism) and its operational safety, especially after repair works or after
mounting new elements or replacing existing elements. For that purpose, it
may be necessary to uncover the foundations.
2. Wooden elements must be checked regarding their stability/sustainability.
Affected by putrefaction and rotten wood must be renewed.
STAINLESS STEEL
NOTE:
Play equipment, which contain components made of stainless steel
should not come with „normal“ steel parts in contact. Those steel parts may
rub off and leave small steel particles in combination with moisture brown
rust stains. If such corrosion occur on stainless steel parts, they are fine
with an abrasive (240 grit) to remove.
Please take care when transporting and setting up the fact that the compo-
nents are made of stainless steel with no „normal“ steel parts in contact.
MAINTENANCE:
In order to preserve a good visual appearance of your sti-
lum playground equipment over a long period one should take care of main-
tenance of the stainless surface even despite of their corrosion resistance.
Especially areas, which can not be reached by rainfall should be frequently
cleaned from dirt and deposits due to air pollution and dirt caused by the
atmosphere.
Light soiling can easily be romoved by using a high pressure cleaner.
For persistent deposits use a clean cloth moistened with a special liquid
cleaner (e.g. on phosphoric acid) and rinse off with clear water after a short
application time. During cleaning with mild abrasive components, only wipe
over stainless steel surface in polishing direction.
For heavily soiled surfaces, polishes can be used (e.g. for cleaning chrome
on cars) or for greasy and oily dirt alcoholic cleaning agents and solvents
(e.g. ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol or acetone).
However, it should be noted that the dissolved soiling is not spread over the
surface again.
Do not use any chlorid or hydrochloric containing cleaning products nor
scouring powder, bleaching - or silver polish cleaner. Cleaning intervals de-
pend on type and degree of soiling as well as on demands made on optical
characteristics. Therefore cleaning is advisable at intervals of six to twelve
months – whereby in the case of strong soiling it is appropriate to clean the
playground equipment at intervals of three to six months.
