2.5 GUIDELINES FOR THE DISPOSAL
OF SCRAP PRODUCTS
When it has been identified that a turf care product
has no further functional value and requires
disposal, the following actions should be taken.
These guidelines should be used in conjunction
with Health, Safety and Environmental legislation
and use of approved local facilities for waste
disposal and recycling.
•
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. 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
pressurized 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 center.
•
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:
o
Steel
o
Nonferrous metals
•
Aluminum
•
Brass
•
Copper
o
Plastics
•
Identifiable
▪
Recyclable
▪
Non-recyclable
•
Non-identified
o
Rubber
o
Electrical and 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.
