            3. Do not use dish-washing or laundry detergents.
            4. Executive and task chairs

              Gas lift

              1. Chairs fitted with gas lift cylinders should be operated on a regular basis, (at least once a week) to prevent the cylinder from seizing up. Chairs should be adjusted through their full range at least once a month.

              Castors

              1. It is desirable to clean wheel chair castors with vacuum cleaner every six months

              Mechanism

              1. Check the tightness of all bolts and screws every twelve months. Do not over tighten. Mechanisms should be operated through their full range at least once a month.

               

              1. Dust the furniture to remove surface dirt. Now you’re ready to remove light soiling.
              2. Start with the gentlest cleaner and move up to stronger ones as needed.
              3. Try mixing a weak solution of water and dishwashing soap.
              4. Dip a soft cloth in the solution, wring it out and wipe the entire piece. You want a damp cloth, not a wet one.
              5. Don’t saturate the wood, and rinse your cloth often.
              6. Take a second, clean cloth and dry the piece thoroughly.

                1. Wipe down with a soft, damp cloth using warm, soapy water
                2. Wipe thoroughly with clean damp cloth to remove any remaining detergent.
                3. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth
                4. Do not use solvent based cleaning fluids or abrasive cleaners

                  Normal Cleaning:

                  1. Wash plastic surfaces with warm water and colourless, non-abrasive liquid detergents
                  2. Leave the soapy solution for a few minutes and then, if necessary, scrub the surface with a flexible bristle brush.
                  3. Subsequently rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a soft cloth
                  4. Avoid prolonged contact with coloured or fatty substances, because they can be absorbed by the polymer and leave stains
                  5. If using water pressure systems for cleaning, be aware not to damage the surface.
                  6. Abrasive cleaners that may affect the product must not be used
