RESPECT THE ENVIRONMENT
At the end of the life cycle of the machine it is recommended not to dispose
of the parts in the environment, but to rely on specialized companies able to
provide for this operation in compliance with the regulations in force.
The rules on decommissioning and elimination of pollutants vary according to
the legislation of the countries where the machine is used.
For further information on disposal, please contact the relevant authorities.

once they have been declared no longer serviceable.

treated as special waste.
