2.4 GUIDELINESFORTHEDISPOSAL

OFSCRAPPRODUCTS

When it has been identified that a turf care

product has no further functional value and

requires disposal, the following actions should

betaken.

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

• Notidentified

• 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.
