At the end of it's working life, ensure that the machine is decontaminated


Explanation:
I'm thinking 'bonifica' is referring to decontamination in this instance - if it fits with whatever the machine is in context - prior to disposing safely/legally of the parts

http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonifica - various uses of the term

- Bonifica, in edilizia, è l'insieme delle operazioni che portano alla rimozione di materiali inquinanti esistenti in un edificio. Una volta rimosso l'inquinante l'ambiente si definisce "bonificato"

- Bonifica - procedimento di eliminazione degli inquinanti da un sito contaminato.

- Bonifica, in metallurgia, è l'insieme della tempra e del rinvenimento eseguito ad alta temperatura (600-650°C) su un acciaio, che è quindi detto "bonificato".
