Remove loose dirt with a vacuum clean-
er. Using a mild soap solution, rub stained
areas with a clean damp cloth. To remove
soap, rub the areas again with a cloth
dampened with water. Repeat this until
the stain is removed, or use a commercial
fabric cleaner for tougher stains. If you use
a fabric cleaner, carefully follow the man-
ufacturer’s instructions and precautions.

ter. Do not use bleach or dye on the belts.

structions and precautions.
