When lowering the table make sure that nothing is between the frames. Make sure that no
person is between the frames.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Regular cleaning will result in many years of continued service from our product.
Cleaning of stainless steel top
When cleaning, the mildest cleaning product (washing-up liquid) will do the job effectively.
Whenever possible, rinse thoroughly with clear water and dry afterwards completely.
Ordinary deposits of waste and fluids can usually be removed with soap and water. More
stubborn deposits or tightly adhering debris may require some harder rubbing, brushing or
scraping and possibly the use of a commercial cleaning product. Make sure that they are
acceptable for stainless steel.
Never use steel wool or steel brushes as particles of steel may become embedded in the
stainless steel surface and cause rust. If necessary use nylon or plastic type scrubbers instead.
To remove minor scale build up and some hard water spotting, wash with vinegar followed by
a neutralising rinse with clear water and a thorough drying with a soft cloth.
Avoid prolonged standing of chlorides (chlorine bleach), bromides iodides and thiocyanates on
stainless steel surfaces. Allowing salty solutions to evaporate and dry on stainless steel
surfaces may also contribute to pitting, corrosion and metal discoloration.
We dissuade from using certain PVC mats. Due to heat radiation caused by some OP-lights,
chlorides can emerge and react with the stainless steel. This might result in corrosion and
metal discoloration.
To maintain the pleasing appearance of stainless steel tops, one must perform periodic and
frequent cleaning. For best results, stainless steel should be cleaned as often as films or
deposits become apparent. Periodic cleaning will remove built-up deposits, which eventually
cause a corrosive concentration to set up on the surface.
One should know that the term “stainless“ is actually relative as science has not developed any
steel which is completely stainless or corrosion proof under all circumstances.
Do not use paint, lacquer or varnish on stainless steel for maintenance. It is much easier to
clean the metal periodically than to rely on any sort of protective covering. Also, never stamp
or etch initials, names or other information into the surface.
When new, flat stainless surfaces have an almost “mirror” finish, small scratches (from dog’s
claws, instruments, etc.) are inevitable. These scratches will be most noticeable on new
surfaces. In a short time, the surface will have accumulated so many of these minute
scratches that they will become hardly noticeable.
