Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Padding Care: Inspect the foam and rubber padding regularly for tears, cracks, or excessive wear. Clean the padding with a mild soap solution if necessary, and allow it to air dry completely.
- Joints: The folding joints are designed for smooth operation. If they become stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied, taking care to avoid contact with the instrument.

To fold the stand for storage or transport:
- Ensure no instrument is on the stand.
- Gently push the two main legs together until the stand collapses into its folded position.
