GENERAL INFORMATION
General Precautions
Dangerous substances
Modern vehicles contain many materials and liquids
which if not handled with care can be hazardous to
both personal health and the environment.
WARNING: Many liquids and other substances
used in motor vehicles are poisonous and should
under no circumstances be consumed and
should, as far as possible, be kept from contact
with the skin. These liquids and substances
include acid, anti-freeze, asbestos, brake fluid,
fuel, windscreen washer additives, lubricants,
refrigerants and various adhesives.
Always read carefully the instructions printed on
labels or stamped on components and obey them
implicitly. Such instructions are included for
reasons of your health and personal safety.
Never disregard them.
Synthetic rubber
Many 'O' rings, seals, hoses, flexible pipes and other
similar items which appear to be natural rubber, are
in fact, made of synthetic materials called
Fluoroelastomers. Under normal operating
conditions this material is safe and does not present
a health hazard. However, if the material is damaged
by fire or excessive heating, it can break down and
produce highly corrosive Hydrofluoric acid.
Contact with Hydrofluoric acid can cause serious
burns on contact with skin. If skin contact does occur:
lRemove any contaminated clothing
immediately.
lIrrigate effected area of skin with a copious
amount of cold water or limewater for 15 to 60
minutes.
lObtain medical assistance immediately.
Should any material be in a burnt or overheated
condition, handle with extreme caution and wear
protective clothing (seamless industrial gloves,
protective apron etc.).
Decontaminate and dispose of gloves immediately
after use.Lubricating oils
Avoid excessive skin contact with used lubricating
oils and always adhere to the health protection
precautions.
WARNING: Avoid excessive skin contact with
used engine oil. Used engine oil contains
potentially harmful contaminants which may
cause skin cancer or other serious skin
disorders.
WARNING: Avoid excessive skin contact with
mineral oil. Mineral oils remove the natural fats
from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and
dermatitis.
Health protection precautions
The following precautions should be observed at all
times.
lWear protective clothing, including impervious
gloves where practicable.
lAvoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,
particularly used engine oils.
lDo not put oily rags in pockets.
lAvoid contaminating clothes (particularly those
next to the skin) with oil.
lOveralls must be cleaned regularly. Discard
heavily soiled clothing and oil impregnated
footwear.
lFirst aid treatment should be obtained
immediately for open cuts and wounds.
lApply barrier creams before each work period to
help prevent lubricating oil from contaminating
the skin.
lWash with soap and water to ensure all oil is
removed (proprietary skin cleansers and nail
brushes will help).
lUse moisturisers after cleaning; preparations
containing lanolin help replace the skin's natural
oils which have been removed.
lDo not use petrol/gasoline, kerosene, diesel
fuel, oil, thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.
lWhere practicable, degrease components prior
to handling.
lIf skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice
without delay.
lWear eye protection (e.g. goggles or face
shield) if there is a risk of eye contamination.
Eye wash facilities should be provided in close
vicinity of the work area.
