Notes and Maintenance
Before you begin installation, read all instructions thoroughly.
Proper tools will improve the quality of installation and reduce the time required.
To protect the product, wax after installing. Regular waxing is recommended to
add a protective layer over the finish. Do not use any type of polish or wax that may
contain abrasives that could damage the finish.
For stainless steel, polish may be used to clear small scratches
and scuffs on the finish. Mild soap may be used also to clean the product.
Always start threaded fasteners by hand and finish tightening with a wrench.
Do not use an impact driver as this may result in cross-threading and cause
damage to the side bar.
