STOW CUTTER 3 CE SAW — MAINTENANCE
Decommissioning Saw/Components
Decommissioning is a controlled process used to safely retire a
piece of equipment that is no longer serviceable. If the equipment
poses an
unacceptable and unrepairable safety risk due to wear
or damage or is no longer cost effective to maintain, (beyond life-
cycle reliability) and is to be decommissioned,
(demolition and
dismantlement), the following procedure must take place:
1. Drain all fluids completely. These may include oil, gasoline,
hydraulic oil and antifreeze. Dispose of properly in accor-
dance with local and governmental regulations. Never pour
on ground or dump down drains or
sewers.
2. Remove battery and bring to appropriate facility for lead
reclamation. Use safety precautions when handling batter-
ies that contain sulfuric acid.
3. The remainder can be brought to a salvage yard or metal
reclamation facility for further dismantling.
