DAILY CLEANING PROCEDURES
CAUTION:
Beware of sharp
edges with sheet
metal during cleaning process.
1. Thoroughly clean rack or cabinet prior to initial use.
2. To clean cabinet regularly, use the following procedure:
A. Pressure (steam) cleaning is recommended for all cabinets
to remove soil and grease deposits. Mild cleaning additives may
be added, depending on the nature of the soil or grease. A solution
of two tablespoons of baking soda per quart of warm water is sufficient for most cleaning jobs. Mild soap or detergent may be used
for heavily soiled interiors. DO NOT use strong detergents, ammonia solutions or abrasive cleaners. Do not use steel wool pads—
ferrous deposits will cause rusting
B. After pressure cleaning, rinse thoroughly with clear water.
C. The unit may be further sanitized by wiping with a solution
of 1 to 2 tablespoons of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite (household
strength laundry bleach) per quart of water.
D. Wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
CAUTION:
Do not use strong detergents, alkalis, ammonia solutions or
abrasive cleaners. Use only cleaning agents approved for aluminum and only in the recommended manufacturer’s concentration. Do
not use steel wool pads—ferrous deposits will cause rusting.
Use of cleaning agents that are not recommended for aluminum may
cause permanent damage to the cabinet. THIS DAMAGE IS PERMA-
NENT, COSTLY TO REPAIR AND IS NOT COVERED BY THE
WARRANTY.

MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Do not move cabinet
unless door is securely closed. Serious damage to hinges and door may
result if bumped into tables,
walls, or other equipment when
the doors are open.
CASTERS
Some cabinets may have caster bearings that are equipped with
Zerk grease fittings so that they may be easily lubricated with a
grease gun. Lubricate bearings at least once every six months.
HINGE MAINTENANCE
Make sure all joints remain sealed and door latches do not stick. If
necessary, use WD-40 to keep door latches from sticking. Do not
use oil.
BUMPER MAINTENANCE
Queen Mary transport carts have a wrap-around bumper with grey
vinyl insert. If vinyl insert starts to come out of the bumper frame,
simply pry it back into place with a flat-head screwdriver.
