●Turn ON/OFF switch to OFF and unplug your wheel from the power source before cleaning or inspection.
●Never hose down the machine. Clean off the potter's wheel with a damp cloth. Drain your splashpan
regularly to avoid a build up of excessive water and clay. Detach the splashpan after each use and
clean out thoroughly.

any loose or missing rubber handles. Do not insert your fingers or any objects in through these
