4. Once the majority of the dirt has been

hosed off, wash all surfaces with warm

water and mild, detergent-type soap. An

old toothbrush or bottle brush is handy for

hard-to-get-at places.

5. Rinse the machine off immediately with

clean water and dry all surfaces with a

chamois, clean towel or soft absorbent

cloth.

6. Dry the chain and lubricate it to prevent

rust.

7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery

cleaner to keep the cover pliable and

glossy.

8. Automotive type wax may be applied to all

painted and chrome plated surfaces.

Avoid combination cleaner-waxes. Many

contain abrasives which may mar the paint

or protective finish.

When finished, start the engine and let it

idle for several minutes.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

Operation with wet brakes after washing.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

Wet brakes may have reduced stopping

ability, increasing the chance of an acci-

dent.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

Test the brakes after washing. Apply the

brakes several times at slow speeds to let

friction dry out the linings.
