Operator's Seat and Trim
Your Case Cab is equipped with an optional soft fabric trimmed seat and
panels of soft foam material for maximum operator comfort. The care and
maintenance of these parts will ensure many satisfactory hours of comfort.
CARE AND CLEANING - Dust and loose dirt that accumulates on seat fabric
should be removed frequently with a vacuum cleaner, wisk broom or soft
brush. Normal cleanable soilage, spots or stain can be cleaned with the proper
use of fabric cleaners.
Before attempting to remove spots or stains from upholstery, determine as
accurately as possible the nature and age of the spot or stain. Some spots or
stains can be removed satisfactorily with water or mild soap solution.
For best results, spots or stains should be removed as soon as possible.
Some types of stains or soilage such as oil and certain types of grease are
extremely difficult and, in some cases, impossible to completely remove. When
cleaning this type of stain or soilage, care must be taken not to enlarge the
soiled area. It is sometimes more desirable to have a small stain than an
enlarged stain as a result of careless cleaning.
CAUTION:
Whencleaninginterior soft trim do not use volatile cleaning
solvents such as acetone, lacquer thinner, carbon tetrecholoride, enamel
reducers,nail polish removers;or such cleaningmaterialsas laundry soaps,
bleachesor reducing agents. Never usegasoline or naptha for any clean-
ing purpose. Thesematerials may be toxic or flammable, or may cause
damageto interior trim.

A
CLEANING WITH CLEANING FLUID - This type of cleaner should be used for
cleaning stains containing grease, oil or fats. Excess stain should be gently
scraped off trim with a clean dull knife or scraper. Use very little cleaner, light
pressure, and clean cloths (preferably cheese cloth). Cleaning action with
cloth should be from outside of stain towards center and constantly changing
to a clean section of cloth.
When stain is cleaned from fabric, immediately wipe area briskly with a
clean absorbent towel or cheese cloth to help dry area and prevent a cleaning
ring. If ring forms, immediately clean entire area.
NOTE:
Sometimes a difficult spot may require a second application of
cleaning fluid followed immediately by a soft brush to completely remove the
spot.
CLEANING WITH DETERGENT FOAM CLEANERS - This type of cleaner is
excellent for cleaning general soilage from fabric and for cleaning where a
minor cleaning ring may be left from spot cleaning.
