SAFETY, OPERATORS & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
2 INTRODUCTION
2.3 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.
