oil with domestic refuse or flush down a sink or drain. Collect old oil in a leak-

STORAGE

the pump has been used with contaminated or salty water, It should be
thoroughly flushed with clean water following use, both inside and out and
drained before replacing the drain plug.

If the pump is not to be used for some time, it should be flushed thoroughly
with clean water, and drained completely before storing in a clean dry
environment. Additionally, it should be prepared as follows:
CAUTION: PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO USED OIL IS HARMFULL,
