Prolonged or repeated contact with engine oil can
lead to skin dryness, irritation and dermatitis.
Furthermore, used engine
oil
contains p01entially
harmfuI contaminants that can cause cancer. When
handling used engine oil, always wear protective
clothing and avoid any skin contact with the oil.
Do
not pour engine oil
on
the ground, down sewers
or drains, or into watercourses.
To
prevent pollution
of watercourses etc., dispose of used oil sensibly. If
in
doubt contact your local authority.

Inspection
Ensure the oil pick-ups are clean and free of
blockages or restrictions.
If
the
oil
flow is restricted,
oil pressure will
be
reduced and may cause severe
engine damage.
If the oil pick-ups are removed, always use new pick-
up bolts during reassembly. Use of the original bolts
may lead to pick-up detachment leading
to
severe
engine damage.
