1.5. 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.
• Position the machine in a suitable location for any necessary lifting equipment to be used.
• 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 centre.
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:
• Steel
Non ferrous metals
• Aluminium
• Brass
• Copper
• Plastics
• Identifiable
• Recyclable
• Non recyclable
• Non identified
• Rubber
• Electrical and electronic components
Items that cannot be separated economically into different material groups should be added to the “General
waste” area.
Do not incarnate waste.
Finally update machinery records to indicate that the machine has been taken out of service and scrapped.
Always adhere to local legislation.
