Technician Safety Information

WARNING:
- PROLONGED OR REPEATED CONTACT WITH MINERAL OIL REMOVES THE NATURAL OILS FROM THE SKIN, CAUSING IT TO BECOME DRY AND IRRITATED
- IF OIL IS SWALLOWED, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
- SPILL OIL CAN CONTAIN DANGEROUS CONTAMINANTS WHICH CAN CAUSE SKIN CANCER
- ALWAYS USE SUITABLE PROTECTION AND THOROUGHLY WASH THE SKIN.

NOTE THE FOLLOWING
- Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, especially spill oil.
- Wear protective clothing, including gloves whenever possible.
- Do not place oily rags in your pockets.
- Do not wear clothes, especially underwear, which has been soiled with oil. Clothing must be washed regularly
