CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Stainless steel surfaces should be wiped down regularly using a quality stainless steel cleaner and
a lint-free towel. This will remove light dust and fingerprints. Always wipe the grain of the stainless
steel. Never use anything abrasive.
Water and other liquids spilled or splashed on the unit should be cleaned off immediately and dried
thoroughly.
Keeping your tool chest covered will protect it from dust and moisture that could potentially damage
the unit.
