6.1.1. MAINTENANCE OF DISPENSER COVERS
Covers of the dispenser ("body parts") made of painted steel or stainless steel require regular maintenance. Pay
special attention to the maintenance of such parts particularly in winter season when, due to the activity of
aerosols from chloride agents created from salts used for road maintenance, the paint of unprotected body
parts may be permanently damaged, or inter‐crystal corrosion may appear in case of stainless‐steel covers.
Recommended maintenance of painted covers:
Wash them with warm water at least twice per month (according to the level of fouling)
At least once a month or after each higher surface fouling with fuels – wash them with detergent,
thoroughly clean the covers from salt residues, dust, and grease (according to the level of fouling) +
restore the protective coating on design parts (car cosmetics).
WARNING
It is forbidden to clean the painted parts of the dispenser with chlorine‐based products!!!
Chlorine‐containing products (disinfectants such as SAVO) cause corrosion of metal parts of the dispenser.
Recommended maintenance of stainless covers:
Wash them with warm water at least twice per month (according to the level of fouling)
At least once a month or after each higher surface fouling with fuels – wash them with warm water,
thoroughly clean the covers from salt residues, dust, and grease (according to the level of fouling) +
restore the protective coating on design parts by using a special agent for stainless sheet metal.
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend the following protective agents and detergents for stainless sheet metal:
‐ ULTRAPUR – d (producer: MMM‐Group, Germany)
‐ NEOBLANK spray (producer: Chemische Fabrik GmbH, Hamburg, Germany)
‐ ANTOX Surface Care 800 S (producer: Chemetall AG, Switzerland)
WARNING
Do not wash stainless steel covers with detergent and chlorine‐based products!!!
