By choosing an ARB Bar, you have bought a product that is one of the most sought after 4WD products
in the world. Your bar is a properly engineered, reliable, quality accessory that represents excellent
value. To keep your bar in original condition it is important to care and maintain it following these
recommendations:
Prior to exposure to the weather your bar should be treated to a Canuba based polish on all exposed
surfaces. It is recommended that this is performed on a six monthly basis or following exposure to
salt, mud, sand or other contaminants.
As part of any Pre Trip Preparation, or on an annual basis, it is recommended that a thorough visual
inspection of the bar is carried out, making sure that all bolts and other components are torqued to
the correct specification. Also check that all wiring sheaths, connectors, and fittings are free of
damage. Replace any components as necessary. This service can be performed by your local
authorized ARB Stockist.
