Disposal
9.1
Metal, electrical and electronic parts
Components of the unit are recyclable material and should be put to recycling. For this purpose
registered and certified recycling companies are available. Metals are sorted, separated and fed
to a disposer! For an environmental friendly disposal of the non-recyclable parts (e.g. electronic
waste) please contact your local waste disposal authority.
For EU countries only:
Do not dispose of electric tools with domestic waste. In accordance with European
Directive 2012/19/EC on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its implementa-
tion as national law, electric tools that are no longer serviceable must be collected
separately and utilised for environmentally compatible recycling.
9.2
Oils and lubricants
Only specialist companies are authorised to dispose of old oils.
Old oils and contaminated oils must be stored and disposed of in sealed, oil-resistant containers
(metal drums).
Defective electrical appliances and machines that cannot be repaired must be opened and
cleaned to remove the remaining oil.
Oil troughs must be cleaned so that there are no traces of oil. No oils (even very small amounts)
may be allowed to enter the ground.
