GUIDELINES FOR THE DISPOSAL OF

SCRAP PRODUCTS

2.3.1 DURING SERVICE LIFE

Used oil, oil filters and engine coolant are hazardous materials and should be handled in a safe and environmentally responsible way.

In the event of a fluid leak, contain the spill to prevent it entering the ground or drainage system. Local legislation will dictate how such spills are to treated.

Following the maintenance procedures laid out in this manual will ensure that the impact the machine has on the local environment is controlled.

When it has been identified that a turf care product has no further functional value and requires disposal, the following actions should be taken.

2.3.2 END OF SERVICE LIFE

These guidelines should be used in conjunction with applicable Health, Safety and Environmental legislation and use of approved local facilities for waste disposal and recycling.

• Position the machine in a suitable location for any necessary lifting equipment to be used.

•

•

Use appropriate tools and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and take guidance from the technical manuals applicable to the machine.

Remove and store appropriately:

1. Batteries

2. Fuel residue

3. Engine coolant

4. Oils

• Disassemble the structure of the machine referring to the technical manuals where appropriate. Special attention should be made for dealing with ‘stored energy’ within pressurised elements of the machine or tensioned springs.

•

•

•

Any items that still have a useful service life as second hand components or can be re-serviced should be separated and returned to the relevant centre.

Other worn out items should be separated into material groups for recycling and disposal consistent with available facilities.

More common separation types are as follows:

• Steel

• Non ferrous metals

• Aluminium

• Brass

• Copper

•Plastics

•Identifiable

• Recyclable

• Non recyclable

• Not identified

• Rubber

• Electrical & Electronic Components

Items that cannot be separated economically into different material groups should be added to the ‘General waste’ area.

• Do not incinerate waste.

Finally update machinery records to indicate that the machine has been taken out of service and scrapped. Provide this serial number to Jacobsen

Warranty department to close off relevant records.
