GENERAL CARE AND MAINTENANCE

By choosing an ARB Bar, you have bought a product that is one of the most sought after 4WD products

in the world. Your bar is a properly engineered, reliable, quality accessory that represents excellent

value. To keep your bar in original condition it is important to care and maintain it following these

recommendations.

Prior to exposure to the weather your bar should be treated to a Canuba based polish on all exposed

surfaces. It is recommended that this is performed on a six monthly basis or following exposure to

salt, mud, sand or other contaminants.

As part of any Pre Trip Preparation, or on an annual basis, it is recommended that a thorough visual

inspection of the bar is carried out, making sure that all bolts and other components are torqued to the

correct specification. Also check that all wiring sheaths, connectors, and fittings are free of damage.

Replace any components as necessary.

Please contact local Authorised ARB Stockist if you would like to have this service carried out on

your behalf.
