Engine oil and hydraulic oil are

state and local regulations.
Battery Disposal
DANGER
Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid, which
is poisonous and can cause severe burns.
Swallowing electrolyte can be fatal or if it touches
skin can cause severe burns.
•
Wear safety glasses to shield eyes, and rubber
gloves to protect skin and clothing when
handling electrolyte.
•
Do Not swallow electrolyte.
•
In the event of an accident, flush with water
and call a doctor immediately.
Federal law states that batteries should not be placed
in the garbage. Management and disposal practices
must be within relevant federal, state, or local laws.
If a battery is being replaced or if the unit containing
the battery is no longer operating and is being
scrapped, take the battery to a local certified recycling
center. If no local recycling is available return the
battery to any certified battery reseller.
