Care for Plastic and Painted Surfaces

PLASTIC SURFACES

The plastic parts on your tractor are made of a blend of polycarbonate and polyester materials. These parts are extremely strong and durable. Unlike painted metal, the plastic parts will never dent or rust. If the plastic parts get scratched, the color will remain the same since the color goes through the entire part.

IMPORTANT: “Dry wiping” or wiping the plastic surface when it is dry will result in minor surface scratches. Always wet the surface before cleaning. Follow correct cleaning and waxing procedures.

Correct Cleaning Care:

NOTE: Follow cleaning procedure every time plastic surfaces are cleaned. DO NOT wipe dry plastic surface with hand or towel.

1.Before washing, rinse hood and entire machine with clean water to remove dirt and dust that may scratch the surface.

2.Wash plastic surface with clean water and a mild

liquid automotive washing soap. Use a SOFT, CLEAN cloth (bath towel or automotive mitt) when washing.

3.Dry thoroughly with a SOFT, CLEAN cloth (diaper or bath towel).

4.Wax the surface with a liquid automotive wax. Use products that specifically say “contains no abrasives”.

5.Remove applied wax by hand using a clean, soft cloth.
