Cleaning the Vehicle
CLEANING THE VEHICLE
Each vehicle is equipped with an ABS/DR acrylic front body and an
Husqvarna does not recommend any type of pressure washing or steam cleaning. Such a process will expose electrical components to moisture. Moisture entering electrical components can result in water damage and subsequent component failure.
Use
The front body is made of an ABS/DR acrylic cap material similar to the material used to manufacture hot tubs and shower/tub units. Cleaning and repair techniques for the front body are the same as those used on conventional acrylic sheet. Use cleaning and polishing products available at any hardware store where ABS/DR acrylic (hot tubs and shower/tub units) are sold.
The seats of the vehicle will last longer with proper cleaning. Use a solution of 10% liquid soap and warm water applied with a soft cloth. For imbedded dirt, a soft bristle brush may be used. For heavy soiling, difficult stains, or scratches, blemishes, or other body damage, see the appropriate maintenance and service manual. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Dispose of waste water properly.
