EXTOL INDUSTRIAL 8791590 Battery Powered Two Wheel Barrow

ASSEMBLING THE BATTERY-POWERED TWO-WHEEL BARROW

• Install the bolts with washers into the holes in the braces first by hand; if they do not slide in, wiggle the assembly, which will loosen it and it will then be possible to screw them in; when all the bolts are in the holes, tighten all of them first with your fingers only (without a wrench), and only then tighten them using a wrench.
• Before putting the wheel on to the axle, first insert the steel block into the groove in the axle, which will prevent the axle from turning while the fastening nut is tightened. Nuts with a spring washer are already screwed on to the axle at the factory. Prior to putting on the wheel, first screw off the nut with the washer and put the wheel on to the axle in such an orientation so that the cut-out in the central hole of the wheel is in the location of the metal block located on the axle. The wheel must be fitted on to the axle so that the tyre tread corresponds to the orientation in the figure, not in reverse!
• Before installing the battery compartment, first, connect the cables to the sockets on the rear side of the compartment and then screw on the cable fastening flanges – for correct operation, it is necessary for the plugs to be completely inserted inside the sockets and for the flanges of the connecting connectors to be completely and firmly screwed on – otherwise, it may happen that the machine will not start moving, etc. If the connector socket is loose, tighten it prior to inserting the plug by fastening the hex cap nut in the socket, otherwise, it may not be possible to sufficiently screw on the connector flange for a firm connection. Insert the battery compartment bolts into the holes without washers and inside the braces – after inserting all the bolts, then tighten them.
• To install the legs and the fastening bolts of the legs, we recommend turning the two-wheel barrow on its side, which will make it easier to screw on the fastening nut with flat washer on the other side.
• Insert the handles into the tubes and secure their positions as required – then secure them in place using the tube clamp.
• Attach the cable on the tube to the tube using a Velcro tape. First attach the Velcro tape to the cable so that it is not lost (step 1) and then wind it around the tube (step 2).
• Completely insert the cable with the metal plug into the socket in the compartment and thoroughly screw on he metal connector flange. If the connector socket is loose, prior to inserting the plug, secure the socket in place by screwing in the hex cap nut.
• Insert the battery into the grooves in the battery compartment in the orientation shown above in the figure; when sliding the battery in, it is necessary to keep the button on the battery pushed down and to release it after it is inserted so that the battery is secured on the partition in the compartment – otherwise the battery will not be connected to the electrical circuit and the drive of the two-wheel barrow will not work. After inserting the battery, make sure that the battery cannot be pulled out by hand.

Preparing for use

ASSEMBLING THE TWO-WHEEL BARROW

• Assemble the two-wheel barrow in the sequence of steps shown in Figures 1-9.
• Insert the connectors of all connection cables into the respective sockets and then use your fingers to screw in the flange of the connector.

WARNING

• Unless everything is properly interconnected for the transmission of el. current, the two-wheel barrow will not function properly, e.g. the indicator lights will not light up, or pushing the travel lever will not set the two-wheel barrow in motion. If such a situation occurs, it is insufficient to simply push on the connector – screw out the connector flanges, remove the cable connectors from the socket and reinsert them ensure that all the pins are inserted all the way, and then screw in the flanges. If the connector socket is loose, secure it in place by screwing in the hex cap nut located on the connector before inserting the cable connector.

WARNING

• When inserting the battery into the compartment in the orientation shown in fig. 8, press the battery removal button (fig. 15, position 18) so that the battery is secured in place on the limit stop inside the compartment. In the event that the battery removal button is not pressed when the battery is inserted, the power supply circuit will not be connected, and the two- -wheelbarrow will not function. After inserting the battery, use your hand to check that the battery cannot be pulled out by hand, and if it can be pulled out, reinsert it in all the way again with the button pushed down.
• Before use, check the pressure in both the tires, ensuring there is the prescribed tire pressure.

CHARGING THE BATTERY, CHECKING THE BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL

• To determine the battery charge level, press the button on the battery (fig. 15, position 15) and the display will show the current-voltage and charge level using green-lit segments. At the voltage level of 42 V the battery is fully charged, at a voltage level of ≤32 V it is necessary to charge the battery. Electronic protection against complete discharge does not serve to com-pletely stop the natural battery self-discharge effect. When the battery is not being used, it will switch to sleep mode with a voltage loss of 0.5 V/per month at a battery voltage of 30-40 V; at a voltage of >40 V the loss is 1 V/month. Therefore, fully charge the battery before storing it and it is recommended to fully charge it after 6 months. To ensure a long battery lifetime, do not store it discharged.

ATTENTION

• When the battery is fully charged, i.e. the voltage of the battery on the display is 42 V, then it may happen that when the battery charge check button on the battery is pressed, only a single red segment may be shown, i.e. as if it were flat, however, when the terminal voltage falls to 41.9 V and less, the charge level will be indicated by the green and red segments.
• Charge the battery at an ambient and battery temperature of 10-40°C. If the battery has a lower temperature, allow its temperature to fully stabilize to the specified temperature. If the battery is hot, allow it to cool down to the specified temperature. Charging the battery outside of the specified range gradually reduces its performance parameters.
• For safety reasons, only the original battery of the manufacturer may be charged (see technical specifications). Using a different charger may result in a fire or explosion as a result of inappropriate charging parameters of the charger.
• Before connecting the charger to an el. power source, check that the mains voltage corresponds to the range 110-240 V ~ 50/60 Hz, thus the charger may be used within this voltage range and at the specified frequencies.
• Before connecting the charger to the el. power source, check that the plastic cover of the charger, the insulation and plug of the power cord, the charging connector for charging the battery are not damaged. Do not use a damaged charger, and replace it with a unit in perfect original condition.
• Before charging the battery, check that its protective cover, display, charging connector or display are not damaged. If the battery is damaged, do not charge it and have it replaced with an original battery from the manufacturer.

CHARGING PROCEDURE

1. Insert the charging plug of the charger into the battery connector socket (fig. 15, position 17). To gain access to the socket, remove the protective rubber cap.

2. Insert the power cord plug of the charger into an el. power socket.

3. The charging process will be indicated using a lit indicator on the charger, where fully charged is indicated by this indicator being lit green.

   • The manufacturer reserves the right to change the above-described indication of the charging process / charged state for possible changes in the manufacturing process. The battery charge level can be determined by pressing the button on the battery.
     ATTENTION

   • When the battery is fully charged, i.e. the voltage of the battery on the display is 42 V, then it may happen that when the battery charge check button on the battery is pressed, only a single red segment may be shown, i.e. as if it were flat, however, when the terminal voltage falls to 41.9 V and less, the charge level will be indicated by the green and red segments.

   • The charger will automatically stop charging when the battery is fully charged. Battery overcharging cannot occur.

4. After charging, first disconnect the charger from the el. power source and then disconnect the charger from the battery.

5. Insert the protective rubber cap into the battery socket. The rubber cap protects the socket against the ingress of water and mechanical particles, which could cause a short circuit of the battery poles.

Note:

• We recommend charging the battery removed from the compartment. If it is inserted, set the button (fig. 15, position 12) to the „0“ position so that current is not drawn from the battery.

TURNING ON/OFF THE AUTOMATIC ELECTRIC DRIVE FUNCTION

• To enable the setting of the electrical drive using the buttons on the control panel located on the handle, set the power switch (fig. 15, position 12) to position „I“, which when switched on will be lit. To turn off the functions, set the power switch to position „0“, which when switched to Off will turn off the light.
• The electric drive is turned on using button (fig. 19, position 1); the degree to which it is pressed regulates the speed. The rotation (travel) direction is set using button (fig. 19, position 2) and drive power (motor power) is set using button (fig. 19, position 4). Pressing button (fig. 19, position 3) will engage the brake and stop movement (block rotation). Further information about the el. drive settings are provided in the description of the control panel (fig. 19).

ELECTRONIC BATTERY PROTECTION AGAINST FULL DISCHARGE, PROTECTION AGAINST OVERLOADING, AND AGAINST HIGH TEMPERATURE

The battery has electronic protection, which shuts off the voltage-current supply and thereby also the operation of the motor if the terminal voltage reaches the minimum value of ≤ 32 V of if the drawn current is too great, which is given by the load placed on the motor. The battery will, likewise, shut off the voltage-current supply if its temperature is too high. The battery may stop supplying voltage-current also when a load is applied at a low temperature since battery power parameters of the battery generally decline at low temperatures. Electronic protection against complete discharge does not serve to completely stop the natural battery self-discharge effect. When the battery is not being used, it will switch to sleep mode with a voltage loss of 0.5 V/per month at a battery voltage of 30-40 V; at a voltage of >40 V the loss is 1 V/ month. Therefore, fully charge the battery before storing it and it is recommended to fully charge it after 6 months. To ensure a long battery lifetime, do not store it discharged.

Not adhering to any of the following instructions may lead to injury by electrical shock, a fire and/or a serious injury to persons. All the instructions and the user‘s manual must be kept for possible future reference. The term „power tool“ in all hereafter provided warnings is defined as a tool powered from the power grid (via a power cord) or a tool powered from a battery (without a power cord / cordless).

SAFETY IN THE WORK AREA

• The work area needs to be kept clean, tidy, and well-lit. Untidiness and dark areas in the work area are sources of accidents.
• The power tool must not be used in environments where there is an explosion hazard, where there are flammable liquids, gases or dust. The power tool generates sparks which could ignite dust or vapours.
• When using the power tool, it is necessary to prevent children and other persons’ access. If the user becomes distracted, they may lose control over the activity being performed.

ELEC TRICAL SAFETY

• The plug on the power cord must correspond to the power socket outlet. The power plug must never be modified in any way. Socket adapters must not be used with power tools that have a safety earth grounding connec-tion. Power plugs that are not damaged by modifi-cations and that correspond to the power socket will limit the danger of injury by electrical shock.
• The user‘s body must not come into contact with grounded objects, such as pipes, central heating radiators, stoves, and refrigerators. The risk of injury by electrical shock is greater when your body is in contact with the ground.
• Power tools must never be exposed to rain, moisture or wetness. The entry of water into the power tool increases the danger of injury by electrical shock.
• The flexible power cord must not be used for any other purposes. Power tools must not be carried or pulled by the power cord, nor may the power plug be disconnected by pulling on the power cord. The power cord must be protected against heat, grease, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled power cords increase the danger of injury by electrical shock.
• If the power tool is used outdoors, an exten-sion cord suitable for outdoor use must be used. Using extension cords designed for outdoor use, limits the risk of injury by electrical shock.
• If the power tool is used in damp areas, it is necessary to use a power supply protected by a residual current device (RCD). The use of an RCD limits the danger of injury by electrical shock. The term „residual current device (RCD)“ may be substituted for by the term „ground fault circuit inter-rupter (GFCI)“ or „earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)“.

SAFETY OF PEOPLE

• When using the power tool, the user must be attentive and pay attention to what they are currently doing and must concentrate and use common sense. The power tool must not be used when the user is tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. Momentary inattentiveness when using the power tool may result in serious injury to persons.
• Use personal protective aids. Always wear eye protection. Use protective aids, such as a respi-rator, safety footwear with anti-slip soles, hard head cover or hearing protection appropriately to the work conditions; they reduce the risk of injury to persons.
• It is essential to avoid accidentally starting the power tool. It is necessary to check that the trigger is in the Off position before plugging the power plug into a power socket and/or when connecting the battery pack, lifting or carrying the power tool. Carrying the power tool with a finger on the trigger or connecting the power tool‘s plug with the switch engaged may cause an accident.
• It is necessary to remove all adjustment tools and spanners before turning on the power tool. An adjustment tool or spanner left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in injury to persons.
• The user may only work in locations that they can reach safely. The user must always maintain a stable stance and balance. This will provide better control over the power tool in unforeseeable situations.
• Dress appropriately. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. The user must ensure that they have hair and clothing at a sufficient distance from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry and long hair may become caught in the moving parts.
• If there is equipment available for the extraction and collection of dust, it is nece-ssary that such equipment is connected and used correctly. The use of such equipment may limit the danger posed by the created dust.
• The user must not become complacent and start ignoring the fundamentals of power tool safety due to the routine arising from frequent use of the power tool. Careless activity may cause serious injury within a fraction of a second.

OPERATING AND MAINTAINING POWER TOOLS

• Power tools must not be overloaded. It is necessary to use power tools that are designed for the work being performed. Appropriate power tools for a given task will do the job better and with greater safety.
• Power tools that cannot be turned on and off with a trigger/switch must not be used. Any power tools that cannot be controlled using a trigger/switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
• Before making any adjustments, replacing accessories or before storing the power tool, it is necessary to pull the power plug out of the power socket and/or remove the battery pack out of the power tool, if it is removable. These preventative safety measures limit the danger of accidentally starting the power tool.
• When not used, the power tool must be stored out of children‘s reach, and persons not acquainted with the power tool or these instructions must not be permitted to use the power tool. A power tool in the hands of inexperienced users is dangerous.
• Power tools and accessories need to be maintained. It is necessary to check the adjustment of moving parts and their movement; focus on cracks, broken parts or any other circumstances that may threaten the proper operation of the power tool. If the power tool is damaged, it is necessary to have it repaired before using it again. Many accidents are caused by insufficiently maintained power tools.
• It is necessary to keep cutting power tools clean and sharp. Correctly maintained and sharpened cutting power tools are less likely to get stuck on material or to jam and they are also easier to control.
• It is necessary to use power tools, accessories, working tools, etc. by these instructions and in such a manner as prescribed for the specific power tool for the given work conditions and the type of work being performed. Using power tools for tasks other than for which they are designed may lead to dangerous situations.
• Handles and grip surfaces must be kept dry, clean and free of grease. Slippery handles and grip surfaces do not ensure a safe grip and control over the power tool in unexpected situations.

OPERATING AND MAINTAINING CORDLESS POWER TOOLS

• The power tool charges only using the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that may be suitable for one type of battery pack, may lead to a fire hazard if used with a different battery pack.
• Only use the tool with a battery pack that is explicitly determined for the given tool. Using any other battery pack may create an accident or fire hazard.
• When the battery pack is not being used, protect it against contact with other metal items such as paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal items that could make a connection between both battery contacts. Short-circuiting the battery contacts may cause burns or a fire.
• Incorrect use may cause liquids to leak out of the battery; avoid coming into contact with them. In the event of accidental contact with these liquids, rinse the affected area with water. If the liquid enters the eye, seek medical help. Liquids leaking from the battery may cause inflammations or burns.
• A battery pack or power tool that is damaged or modified, must not be used. Damaged or modified batteries may behave erratically, which may result in a fire, an explosion or an injury hazard.
• Battery packs or power tools must not be exposed to a fire or excessive heat. Exposure to fire or a temperature exceeding 130°C may result in an explosion.
• It is necessary to adhere to all battery charging instructions and not to charge the battery pack or power tool outside the temperature range specified in this user‘s manual. Incorrect charging, or charging at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

SERVICE

• Damaged battery packs must never be repaired. The battery pack should only be repaired by the manufacturer or at an authorized service centre.

Safety instructions for the battery-powered two-wheel barrow

LOADING LOADS

1. Do not overload this machine. When putting on loads, adhere to the instructions and load limits provided in this manual.
2. Firmly secure loads using fastening belts.
3. If the load/s protrude past the tray, there is a risk of an accident resulting from the load falling or its contact with obstacles such as walls.
4. Ensure that the loaded loads are below eye level. If the load is too tall, then this is dangerous because the visibility of the user is impaired. There is also a risk over tipping over and injury because the load will most probably be unbalanced.
5. Load loads evenly. If the loads are loaded unevenly, there is a risk of tipping over and injury because the load will most probably be unbalanced.
6. Therefore, ensure that heavy loads are loaded first, to ensure that the load is balanced.
7. When sliding out the front and side protective frames, do not slide them out past their limit position. When sliding out the side protective frames, slide them out in such a way that the right and left sides have the same length and load the loads evenly.
8. Load and unload loads on a level surface.

MAINTENANCE

1. Before storing or before inspecting or performing maintenance, ensure that this machine is parked on an even surface and engage the electronic brake.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE BATTERY-POWERED WHEELBARROW

1. When working with this machine, always use anti-slip footwear and protective clothing. Anti-slip safety footwear with a solid enclosed tip, reduces the risk of injury.

2. Before moving items/materials, check the route. Acquaint yourself with the planned route and ensure that it is sufficiently wide to enable you to pass through safely with this machine loaded, which prevents loss of control over this machine.

3. Be very careful when on slippery, unpaved, and unstable terrain. Wet and slipper surfaces, and, likewise, wet grass surfaces, snow and ice, and unpaved and unstable terrain, such as sand and gravel, may result in loss of the machine‘s traction and may negatively affect steering, braking and stability.

4. Do not use this machine on excessively steep slopes. This will reduce the risk of loss of control and falls, which could result in injuries. Inclines that are greater than the maximum recommended incline and side tilts, may increase the risk of instability and may negatively affect the ability to stop safely.

5. When working on slopes, always ensure that you have a stable stance, always work perpendicular to the slope, never up or down, and be particularly careful when changing direction. This will reduce the risk of loss of control and falls, which could result in injuries.

6. Whenever possible, use level surfaces for stopping, loading and unloading, and never leave this machine on a slope without supervision. This machine is less stable when parked on a slope than when parked on a level surface.

7. When stopping on a slope, turn the machine in the direction facing up or down from the slope and block the wheel using the electronic brake.

8. Do not leave this machine without supervision, engage the brake as soon as the machine is located in a safe stopping location. The brake prevents unwanted motion of the front wheel and may improve stability.

9. Ensure that ramps are clean, rigid and safe. To reduce risks of injury, all ramps must be free of loose materials and must be sufficiently strong to bear the weight of the expected loads, which will move over them. They must be sufficiently supported from underneath and on both sides so that deflections and side-to-side movements are eliminated when they are placed under load. All ramps must be sufficiently wide to ensure stability when loads are transported.

10. Avoid extending ramps without utilizing bracing boards or handrails over open spaces. Elevated open spaces and uncovered excavations may cause falls and increase the possibility of causing serious injuries. Use bracing boards or handrails on ramps passing over open spaces to prevent riding this machine off the ramp.

11. Prior to use, ensure that all bolts are firmly tightened.

12. Never use this machine if it is overloaded. Ensure that this machine has a sufficient load-bearing capacity for the items or materials that it will be transporting. Excessive loading will make steering and stopping this machine more difficult, will extend the time and distance for stopping and increase the risk of instability.

13. Never use this machine with too much stacked (loaded) material. Material that is stacked above the side frames or exceeding the side frames may cause the position of the center of gravity of the machine to change and thereby lead to a loss of control over this machine.

14. To secure the load, use containers and fastening elements. Loose and/or unsecured loads will be more likely to shift/move, which could lead to
    a loss of stability and control.

15. Constantly maintain a firm grip on the handles. Loss of control may increase the risk of injury.

16. When this machine is not being used, turn it off using the power switch and remove the battery. Turning off the power switch will prevent activating the electric drive, e.g. by children or other untrained or unauthorized persons.

17. This machine may not be used on public roads. Using this wheelbarrow on public roads is illegal and could lead to penalties, furthermore, could cause injury to persons.

18. When loading and/or unloading this machine to transport or move the machine between various levels, use rigid boards with a non-slippery surface and with a function preventing their separation. Ensure that the incline of the board does not exceed 20° and operate the machine slowly and carefully. Instability and fast operation may lead to tipping over and/or a fall.

19. Do not repair or modify this machine.

OPERATION

1. When operating this machine, stand behind this machine and hold it firmly by its handles.
2. Do not operate this machine while travelling on it.
3. Do not permit other persons to travel on this machine.
4. When this machine is reversing and when wal-king backwards, look behind yourself and be careful not to slip or trip over.
5. Do not use this machine under poor visibility conditions as this presents a risk of impacting obstacles.
6. When operating this machine on an uneven surface, reduce its speed and be very careful.
7. When using this machine, avoid soft surfaces so as to avoid tipping over as a result of a collapse of the road shoulder.
8. Do not operate this machine on ascending slo-pes with an incline greater than 20°.
9. In the event of any problem occurring, stop this machine on a level surface. Prior to inspecting this machine, engage the brake.
10. Ensure that cables do not get caught on loads or obstacles.

USE ON SLOPES

1. Work perpendicular to the slope (along the contour).
2. Ensure that you reduce the speed and be very careful.
3. Be very careful when starting or stopping on a slope.
4. Since loads are less stable on slopes, secure them firmly using ropes.
5. Since this machine becomes unstable based on the condition of the path, limit its load to a minimum.
6. Since visibility on slopes is impaired, limit the height of the load to a minimum.
7. Do not park this machine on steep slopes. Park this machine on a level surface and turn off the power supply.
8. Do not change direction or the speed mode on steep slopes.
9. Do not release the start switch on ascending slopes. The machine could start reversing, which could result in an accident.
10. Prior to starting work on slopes, check that the battery is sufficiently charged. If the battery is not sufficiently charged, charge the battery or replace it with a charged one.

• The machine generates an electromagnetic field during operation, which may negatively affect the operation of active or passive medical implants (pacemakers) and threaten the life of the user.

It is generally not assumed that the charger will be used by very small children (age 0-3 years inclusive) and used by small children without supervision (age between 3 and 8 years). It is conceded that seriously handicapped persons may have needs outside the level specified by norms EN 60335-1 and EN 60335-2-29.
• When charging, provide for ventilation since fumes may be released if the battery of the compressor is damaged as a result of incorrect handling (e.g. as a result of being dropped).
• Charge the battery at an ambient temperature range of 10°C to 40°C.
• Protect the charger against impacts and falls, prevent the ingression of water into the charger, damaging the insulation on the power cord or the socket plug.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE BATTERY

• Protect the battery against rain, high humidity, high temperatures (over 50°C), against mechanical damage (impacts and falls), and never open, burn or short-circuit the battery. Store the battery fully charged, and to achieve the longest possible battery lifetime, fully charge the battery after several months of storage (every 6 months). Do not store the battery in temperatures below freezing point.

Repairs and maintenance

• Before service maintenance, take the battery out of the machine.
• Before using the machine, check the tyre pressure using a pressure gauge, and if necessary inflate to the pressure value specified on the tire.
• When not using the machine, take the battery out of it and charge it fully before storing it. Do not store the battery when it is discharged. The sleep mode of the battery does not entirely stop the natural self-discharge effect. To minimize the self-discharging of the battery, do not leave the battery inserted in the two-wheel barrow. Fully charge the battery after every 6 months.
• If any part of the two-wheel barrow, the charger or the battery is damaged, do not use it and arrange for its replacement with an original unit from the manufacturer. For safety reasons, only an original part from the manufacturer may be used.

REPLACING OIL (FIG. 17A TO FIG. 17C)

• Initially replace the oil after 6 months and then 1x per year thereafter. Pour 150 ml into the gear box. Use either motor oil SAE 15W40 or transmission oil. Using a different type of oil is forbidden.
  1. Screw out the air pressure equalization valve as shown in fig. 17a.
  2. Place an appropriate container underneath the drain bolt for capturing the oil and unscrew the drain bolt (fig. 17b) and allow all the oil to drain out in to the prepared container.
  3. After draining the oil, screw the bolt back in place and tighten it firmly and then through the hole in the top part, pour 150 ml of either motor oil SAE 15W40 or a gearbox/transmission oil into the gear box.

Storage

• Store the machine in a dry location that is out of reach of children at temperatures up to 40 °C with the battery removed. Protect the machine against direct sunlight, rodents and sources of radiant heat. yyDuring storage, protect the battery against rain, frost, high humidity, temperatures above 50°C, against mechanical damage (e.g. being dropped) and never open or burn it. Store the battery fully charged and to ensure the longest possible lifetime, fully charge it after several months (no later than after 6 months).

Waste disposal

PACKAGING MATERIALS

• Throw packaging materials into a container for the respective sorted waste.

ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT AND BATTERIES AT THE END OF THEIR LIFETIME

• According to Directive (EU) 2012/19, unusable electrical equipment must not be thrown out with communal waste but rather must be handed over for ecological disposal at an electrical equipment collection point because it contains components that are hazardous to the environment. The battery must be removed from the electrical equipment, prior to the equipment being handed over for ecological disposal, at a battery collection point separately. You can find information about electrical equipment waste and battery collection points and collection conditions at your local town council office or at your vendor.

DISPOSAL OF WASTE OIL

• Take unusable oil in a tightly sealed and impact-resistant container to a dangerous waste collection facility. Do not pour the oil into waste water (sewage) lines or into the environment, e.g. on to soil, etc.
