LUBRICANT STORAGE
Your equipment can operate at top efficiency only when
clean lubricants are used.
Use clean containers to handle all lubricants.
Store lubricants and containers in an area protected from
dust, moisture, and other contamination. Store containers
on their side to avoid water and dirt accumulation.
Make certain that all containers are properly marked to
identify their contents.
Properly dispose of all old containers and any residual lu-
bricant they may contain.
MIXING OF LUBRICANTS
In general, avoid mixing different brands or types of oil.
Oil manufacturers blend additives in their oils to meet
certain specifications and performance requirements.
Mixing different oils can interfere with the proper func-
tioning of these additives and degrade lubricant perfor-
mance.
Consult your NANNI dealer to obtain specific information
and recommendations.
DISPOSING OF WASTE FLUIDS
Prior to contemplate any draining, make sure that all
adequate gear such as : funnel(s), hose(s), suitable
container(s) and so on, are at hand.
Use leak-proof containers when draining fluids. Do
not use food or beverage containers that may mislead
someone into drinking from them.
Wear gloves and eye protection glasses. Follow all safety
rules. Wait for engine to cool down.
Do not let waste to drip on the ground, down a city drain,
or into any water source. Improperly disposing of engine
coolants, oils, or other chemical fluids is a threat against
environment and is an offence in many countries.
Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dis-
pose of waste from your local environmen-
tal or recycling center, or from your Nanni
engine representative or service dealer.
