tape

should not remain on the surface for any longer than 45 days after installation. The surface of your YFA Shutters must be kept clean, as dirt, grime and airborne salt

deposits from the atmosphere can damage the coating. For external applications we

recommend cleaning every three months and at least every six months. A shorter interval

may be necessary in marine or other corrosive environments.

Preventative

maintenance

Spray WD40 or similar marine grade lubricant on blade

pivots (at the end of the blade between the blade and the

stile). Wipe away excess with a soft dry cloth.

Clean, dry and spray with marine grade lubricant such as

CRC Marine 66, WD4o or Inox-Care

Apply Petroleum Jelly or WD40 to the inner lip of each side

of the track. Ensure that the wheels or trolleys pass through

the lubricant and it is distributed evenly along the track. Put

additional lubricant around the bearings.

After long service some change of colour, loss of gloss or chalking may be expected.
