Potentially hazardous chemicals used with John Deere equipment include such items as lubricants, coolants, paints, and adhesives. LIVE WITH SAFETY A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provides specific details on chemical products: physical and health hazards, safety procedures, and emergency response techniques. Check the MSDS before you start any job using a hazardous chemical. That way you will know exactly what the risks are and how to do the job safely. Then follow procedures and recommended equipment.
TS231 Before returning machine to customer, make sure engine is functioning properly, especially the safety systems. Install all guards and shields. Dispose of Waste Properly Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the environment and ecology. Potentially harmful waste used with John Deere equipment include such items as oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid, filters, and batteries. Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not use food or beverage containers that may mislead someone into drinking from them. Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into any water source.
Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste from your local environmental or recycling center, or from your John Deere dealer. 4/7/95 S-5 AllTractorManuals.com
