Managing Waste
PACCAR Winch believes in a life-cycle approach to our products. We encourage best practices regarding “Going
Green” — making environmentally responsible decisions to “reduce, reuse, and recycle.”
• At the end of the winch’s useful life, it is highly recommended to drain and recycle any oil remaining in the equipment.
•
Please use a metal recycler for winch disposal to reduce landfill waste.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has developed required practices, called “management standards,” for busi-
nesses that handle used oil and metal wastes. Specific guidelines are available at the EPA and API Web sites as well
as your state’s environmental agency Web site:
