Disinfectants and cleaners containing bleach, phenolics, or

Water under high pressure, or steam, can penetrate joints,
flush away lubricant, and cause corrosion. Use caution when
cleaning moving parts such as joints and hinges, and reapply
lubricant if needed. See “Lubricating the Transporter” on
page 21.
Using abrasive cleaning compounds or applicators on the
transporter can cause damage. Do not use abrasive materials
