CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
CAUTION:
The exhaust valve is filled with sodium. Sodium is a strong alkali which may produce a dangerous chemical reaction. Therefore, be very careful when handling and disposing of it.
Do not disassemble the exhaust valve for the following reasons: 1) If sodium enters your eyes, vision loss may occur. 2) If sodium contacts your skin, burns may occur. 3) If sodium is exposed to a flame and starts a fire due to the chemical reaction that takes place, burns may occur.
If the exhaust valve is damaged, remove the valve and perform the proper procedures to dispose of the sodium. (disposal preparation and actual disposal)
When removing a damaged exhaust valve, always wear rubber gloves and safety glasses.
Do not cut the exhaust valve to take out the sodium.
Tech Tips
The sodium inside the exhaust valve is safe as long as the sodium is not exposed to air.
Exhaust valves filled with sodium can be identified by confirming the "NA" identification mark.
Remove the exhaust valve.
Dispose of exhaust valve.
