ECOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS
The following are recommendations which may
be of assistance:
• Become acquainted with and ensure that you
understand the relative legislation applicable
to your country.
• Where no legislation exists, obtain
information from suppliers of oils, fuels,
antifreeze, cleaning agents, with regard to
their effect on man and nature and how to
safely store, use and dispose of these
substances.
HELPFUL HINTS
1. Avoid filling tanks using cans or
inappropriate pressurized fuel delivery
systems which may cause considerable
spillage.
2. In general, avoid skin contact with all fuels,
oils, acids, solvents, etc. Most of them
contain substances which can be harmful to
your health.
3. Modern oils contain additives. Do not burn
contaminated fuels and/or waste oils in
ordinary heating systems.
4. Avoid spillage when draining off used engine
coolant mixtures, engine, gearbox and
hydraulic oils, brake fluids, etc. Do not mix
drained brake fluids or fuels with lubricants.
Store them safely until they can be disposed
of in a proper way to comply with local
legislation and available resources.
5. Modern coolant mixtures, like antifreeze and
other additives, should be replaced every
two years. They should not be allowed to get
into the soil but should be collected and
disposed of safely.
6. Do not open the Air Conditioning system
yourself. Your Dealer / Air Conditioning
specialist has special equipment for
discharging and charging the system.
7. Repair any leaks or defects in the engine
cooling or hydraulic system immediately.
8. Do not increase the pressure in a
pressurized circuit as this may lead to a
catastrophic failure of the system
components.
9. Protect hoses during welding as penetrating
weld splatter may burn a hole or weaken
them, causing the loss of oils and coolants.
