equipment at a safe level
This system is equipped with non-skid rubber ‘feet’ to prevent the product from moving when you operate the
controls. These ‘feet’ are made from non-migrating rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or
stains on your furniture. However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning sprays
may cause the rubber ‘feet’ to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage
to your furniture we strongly recommend that you purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware
stores and home improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber ‘feet’ before
you place the product on fine wooden furniture.
