given to the potential fire/explosion hazards from the base material being processed. Many materials create flammable/explosive dusts or turnings when sanded, machined or ground.
Special protective equipment and precautions for fire-fighters: Firefighters should wear full emergency equipment and NIOSH approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Wear appropriate protective clothing as needed to avoid eye and skin contact.
Environmental precautions: Avoid release into the environmental. Report releases as required by local, state
and federal authorities.. Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Pick up, sweep up or vacuum and place in a
container for disposal. Minimize generation of dust.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for safe handling: Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing dust. Wash thoroughly
after handling and use, especially before eating, drinking or smoking. Consider potential exposure to components of the base materials or coatings being ground. Refer to OSHA’s substance specific standards for additional work practice requirements where applicable.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in a dry location.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure guidelines:
Note: Consider also components from base materials and coatings.
