1 <br /> 1 Exhaust Fumes: <br /> 1 The type of fuel or power used by a sweeper is of no major importance. However, if the sweeper has an internal <br /> combustion engine,make certain that the hot engine exhaust is not discharged down toward the playing surface. Hot <br /> objects can damage the field and engine exhaust may soil it. Check to make sure that the sweeper is designed in such <br /> a way that a hot muffler or exhaust pipe cannot drop onto the surface. <br /> 1 Oil.Spillage, Etc.:. <br /> 1 Care should be taken to prevent lubricating oil, grease; transmission fluids, etc. from dripping or spilling on the turf <br /> surface. Such spills can discolor the surface. Proper maintenance procedures must be observed in this regard. Batten <br /> acid and other fluids must not be allowed on the surface. Never change or add fluids to maintenance equipment <br /> while on the surface. <br /> CAUTION: Because electrically powered units may not be properly grounded, do not use <br /> 1 them on wet or damp surfaces. <br /> 1 <br /> General Instructions: <br /> 1 GeoGreen and GeoTrax fibers are among the most stain resistant in the industry. Most "stains" <br /> on polyethylene fields are not true "stains" but rather residue of foreign matter that must be <br /> 1 promptly and thoroughly removed. <br /> The first rule in spot removal is promptness. It is always easier to clean up a fresh spill than one that has dried and <br /> 1 hardened. Remove any solid or paste-like deposit with a spatula or table knife. Blot up excess liquids with a thick <br /> stack of paper towels or a dry absorbent such as"kitty litter' or Fullers Earth. Dry absorbents can then be swept or <br /> vacuumed up. <br /> 1 Procedure: <br /> Geo-Surfaces artificial turf has good resistance to staining. However, it is important to realize <br /> 1 they are only one part of a sophisticated system of various components designed for overall field <br /> performance. Some cleaning agents that are safe for the fiber can be harmful to other <br /> components of the system. <br /> 1 Cleaning agents are grouped Into the following two groups: <br /> 1 GROUP ONE: <br /> These cleaning agents can be used in liberal amounts directly on the turf surface and should only be applied by <br /> 1 rubbing a cloth soaked in the cleaner. The following procedures should be noted: <br /> 1) A warm, mild solution of granular household detergent such as Tide or ALL in water, or <br /> any neutral low-sud detergent that is recommended for fine fabrics. Use approximately <br /> one teaspoon to one pint of water. This will handle most stains, as the list below <br /> indicates. <br /> 1 Global Synthetics EnvironmentaL LLC • 6326 Highland Road • Baton Rouge.LA 70808 • 225.907.4763• www geosurfaces.com 14 <br /> RFP#12-10-03 <br /> 1 <br />
