Safety Instructions
Environment protection
Take care of the environment, there are numerous
environmental risks especially when performing
maintenance on the machine. This particularly applies
when dealing with engine oil, hydraulic oil, fuel, oil
filters, hydraulic filters and fuel filters. You must be
attentive to ensure spillage does not occur when you
open a system that contains oil or fuel.
Always wipe up spillage. When using cloths,
sawdust or oil absorbents, these should be treated
as environmental hazardous waste. Follow local
regulations.
Choose an area, preferably with a concrete floor,
when you handle or store oils and fuel so that you
can clear up any spillage without it penetrating into
the ground.
Avoid spillage, use a funnel and fill carefully.
When draining, ensure that a suitably sized
container is placed correctly. Remember that the
oil does not always run straight down.
Transfer the waste oil into a sealed container and
hand in for destruction. Remember to follow local
regulations. Generally you can deposit waste oil at
workshops or petrol stations that handle waste oil.
