ENVIRONMENT

Carrying out work, such as maintenance work, regularly, on
time and with the necessary skill helps to reduce pollution of
the environment.
This can be achieved by noticing and repairing any leaks in
time and by keeping the engine in an optimal condition
(adjusting the valves, replacing the air filter element, etc.), so
that there is a smaller emission of harmful gases.
It should also be mentioned that oils and liquids contain
harmful elements which pollute the environment.
Therefore, make sure the drained oils, greases and liquids,
as well as the used oil filters and fuel filters, are collected in
appropriate, separate containers.
When working on the fuel system, collect any fuel that is
released in a clean container. The fuel can be reused after it
has been filtered.
If a vehicle or a component is cleaned with a high-pressure
hose or a steam cleaner, then this must take place in a suit-
able washing area where oils and greases can be collected.
A number of components contain lubrication oil and/or
grease. Always drain the liquids that are present in compo-
nents when disposing of the vehicle or a component.
Always be conscious of the environment
when carrying out work.
