Accidents happen, and a spilled drink inside a toy crane machine can be a sticky situation. Don't panic. First, immediately unplug the machine for safety. Put on gloves. Use absorbent paper towels to soak up as much liquid as possible from the base and glass panels. For the internal mechanism, you'll need to carefully open the main service panel or rear access door, following your machine's manual. Once inside, use a slightly damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner to wipe down metal parts, the claw mechanism, and any plastic chutes. Avoid excessive moisture near electrical components. For plush toys that got wet, remove them and check their care labels. Many can be surface-cleaned with a disinfectant spray or gentle upholstery cleaner, then air-dried completely before returning. Never use harsh chemicals or submerge electrical parts. Regular, gentle cleaning prevents residue buildup and keeps your crane machine hygienic for everyone.
