Decommissioning Vibrator/Components

risk due to wear or damage or is no longer cost effective to
maintain (beyond life-cycle reliability), and is to be
decommissioned (demolition and dismantlement), the
following procedure must take place:

hydraulic oil and antifreeze. Dispose of properly in accordance
with local and governmental regulations. Never pour on ground
or dump down drains or sewers.
■ Drain excess gasoline from the fuel system into an approved
storage container.
■ Engine block is made of recyclable aluminum. Plastic engine
components should be removed and recycled separately.
■ The frame and control arm are manufactured of recyclable
steel. Bring to a salvage yard or metal reclamation facility for
further dismantling.
■ The harness assembly is made of non-recyclable fabric.
