Care and Maintenance Instructions The elephantrunk
™
Parcel Drop
As with all products exposed to the outdoor elements, your elephantrunk
™ will require some periodic cleaning and
maintenance to keep it looking nice and extend its useful life. The maintenance frequency depends on where you live and
how well your product is protected from the sun and weather. Products in harsher environments require more frequent care.
As a general guideline, if your product begins to look dirty or weathered, it’s time to clean it. Please follow these simple
guidelines for the different materials used in your product:
Cleaning and restoring powder coated (painted) surfaces: Rinse the surfaces with clean water to remove all debris and
grit buildup. Gently clean the surfaces with a mild soap and water. To remove stubborn blemishes or to help restore the
original finish or color, use an automotive wax or a light lubricant such as WD40.
Protecting your elephantrunk™ from the elements: Although weather is always a key factor in the design of any outdoor
product, we recommend that you place your parcel drop in a covered area. We also advise that you redirect any sprinklers
to prevent them from hitting the elephantrunk™ as this will reduce the life of the finish. Choose a protective location, such
as on a porch or under an eave, and away from sprinklers.
