Do not dispose of used oil in sewers, storm drains, rivers or streams; collect it and consign
it to an authorised disposal company.
Contain the spilt product from spreading using soil, sand or any other absorbent mate-
rial. The contaminated zone must be degreased with solvent, taking care not to allow
vapours to form or stagnate, and the residual material from the cleaning process must
be disposed of as envisaged by law.
