OIL AND OIL FILTER REPLACEMENT

CAUTION:


  • Prolonged and repeated contact with engine oil will result in the removal of natural oils from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.

  • Precautions should be taken when replacing engine oil to minimize the risk of your skin making contact with used engine oil. Protective clothing and gloves that cannot be penetrated by engine oil should be worn. The skin should be washed with soap and water or waterless hand cleaner to remove any used engine oil thoroughly. Do not use gasoline, thinners, or solvents.

  • In order to preserve the environment, used engine oil and used oil filter elements must be disposed of at designated disposal sites.
