Keeping your toy crane machine clean is essential for both its appearance and the hygiene of the prizes inside. Here's a natural and effective method to tackle the dirt. First, unplug the machine from the power source for safety. Use a soft, microfiber cloth slightly dampened with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner or a mix of gentle dish soap and warm water to wipe down the exterior cabinet, control panel, and joystick or buttons. Avoid spraying liquid directly onto the machine; instead, spray onto the cloth. For the interior glass or plexiglass, use a glass cleaner and a lint-free cloth to achieve a streak-free shine. The metal claw can be sanitized with a disinfectant wipe suitable for electronics. As for the plush toys or prizes inside, check their care labels. Many can be surface-cleaned with a fabric refresher spray or, if permitted, spot-cleaned with a damp cloth. For a deeper clean, some may be machine washable on a gentle cycle. Allow all components to dry completely before plugging the machine back in and refilling it with prizes. Regular dusting and quick wipes after heavy use will help maintain your crane machine and keep it inviting for everyone.
