CLEANING AND STORAGE
A. Cleaning
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your vehicle
will not only enhance its appearance but will
improve its general performance and extend
the useful life of many components.
1. Before cleaning the vehicle:
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipe
to prevent water entry. A plastic bag
and strong rubber band may be used.
b. Make sure the spark plug and all filler
caps are properly installed.
2. If the engine case is excessively greasy,
apply degreaser with a paint brush. Do
not apply degreaser to the wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a
garden hose. Use only enough pressure
to do the job. WARNING! Test the
brakes after washing. Apply the
brakes several times at slow speeds
to let friction dry out the linings. Wet
brakes may have reduced stopping
ability, increasing the chance of an ac-
cident. NOTICE: Excessive water
pressure may cause water seepage
and deterioration of wheel bearings,
brakes, transmission seals and elec-
trical devices. Many expensive repair
bills have resulted from improper
high-pressure detergent applications,
such as those available in coin-oper-
ated car washers.
