Keep it away from sharp objects to avoid scratches. For maintenance, you can use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior. If there's some tarnish, a gentle brass cleaner can be used sparingly. Check the wheels regularly for any signs of excessive wear. When storing, make sure to use the original box and foam to protect it from dust and damage. Also, keep in mind that if you're shipping it back for a return, you'll need to repack it carefully to avoid any new damages.
