CARE & CLEANING
UPHOLSTERY
In order to maintain your product’s quality and ensure the life of your upholstery, we have tested several preventa-
tive steps you can take to protect the upholstery fabric on your table and accessories.
Here are a few suggestions in caring for your upholstery fabric:
• DO NOT store your table or upholstery fabric-covered accessories in temperatures below 32°F/0°C or above
95°F/35°C. Extreme hot and cold temperatures will damage the upholstery fabric. Some potential results are
cold-cracking, brittleness and upholstery fabric stretching. And, always keep your table away from heaters, elec-
trical appliances and direct sunlight.
• We recommend cleaning your upholstery fabric to protect it against oil stains and dirt which will cause cracking
and permanent stains over time. Clean your upholstered items when needed using a mild solution of 4:1 diluted
non-alcohol cleaner such as Formula 409 ® , Fantastik ® , Green Windex ® or some other non-abrasive cleaner. For
disinfecting purposes you may use Protex, MadaCide, Accell TB, Virox ® (Canada) or a diluted 1/100 bleach
solution. Dry the table immediately after cleaning to remove excess cleaning solution. Using citrus based clean-
ers or other strong cleaners, such as alcohol, acetone, higher concentrations of bleach or other products that
contain high concentrations of these substances, can shorten the life of your fabric, or discolor it.
Note: Damage caused by cleaners will not be covered under the warranty.
• Use both ends of the table evenly. Occasionally switch the face rest from one end of the table to the other to
reduce uneven wear.
• Protect your table and accessories with sheets and fleeces. We offer both fitted sheets and thick fleeces that
protect your upholstery fabric against oil stains while offering comfortable softness to your clients. You can also
preserve your face rest and bolsters with covers and fleeces.
• Use only a mild solution of 4:1 diluted non-alcohol cleaner such as 409 ® , Fantastik ® or some other non-abrasive
cleaner to wipe down the metal and wooden surfaces. Apply with a damp (not wet) lint-free cloth. Be sure
excess liquid does not drip onto, or into, any of the electrical controls or mechanisms. Be sure that the unit is
unplugged before cleaning these areas. Wipe these areas dry carefully with a lint free cloth.
• Electronic and/or manual lift mechanisms require no general maintenance or
lubrication. Hydraulic units may require yearly maintenance.
• If the table will be out of use for an extended period of time, the power cord should be unplugged from the
receptacle. To prevent inadvertent damage to the plug or cord, the cable should be coiled and secured with a
wire tie or rubber band.
• The wooden cabinetry of the equipment can be polished with any polish approved for wooden surfaces. Spray,
or pour the polish onto a soft cloth and be careful not to get it onto other surfaces.
• It is important to visually inspect your table on a quarterly basis to ensure all
components are working properly and safely. Be sure to tighten all bolts to be sure they are secure. Over time
they may work their way loose, leading to an unsafe
condition.
• The face rest and table extender should be removed when not in use.
These items should be stored in a cool, dry place.
