First Aid Facilities<br />
Advice to Doctor<br />
Harmful if swallowed.<br />
Inhalation, skin, ingestion and eyes.<br />
Inhalation of vapour or mists generated by heating, stirring or spraying<br />
can result in headaches and irritation of the throat and nose.<br />
No adverse effects expected however large amounts may cause nausea and vomiting.<br />
Acute oral toxicity is considered to be extremely low. No hazards anticipated from<br />
swallowing small amounts incidental to normal handling conditions.<br />
Generally non-irritant on incidental contact. Excessive or prolonged contact may<br />
give rise to slight irritation.<br />
Product may cause slight to moderate irritation to the eyes.<br />
Remove victim from exposure - avoid becoming a casualty. Seek medical attention.<br />
DO NOT induce vomiting because of risk of aspiration. Seek medical attention.<br />
Wash with plenty of soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before<br />
re-use. If irritation occurs seek medical advice.<br />
Immediately irrigate with copious quantity of water for at least 15 minutes.<br />
Eyelids to be held open. Seek medical advice if effects persist.<br />
Typical washroom facilities.<br />
Treat symptomatically.<br />

Other Information<br />
Wear protective clothing previously specified for normal operations.<br />
Prevent contamination of soil and water. Inform local authorities if this cannot<br />
be prevented.<br />
In event of large spill: Collect and seal in properly labelled drums for disposal.<br />
In the event of a small spill: Use absorbent (soil or sand, sawdust, inert<br />
material, vermiculite). Observe local regulations.<br />
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin and eyes . Ventilate workplace in<br />
such a way that the Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) is not exceeded. Ensure a<br />
high level of personal hygiene is maintained when using this product. That is;<br />
always wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet<br />
Store in a well ventilated place away from ignition sources, oxidising agents,<br />
foodstuffs and clothing. Keep containers closed when not in use.<br />
Store under cover in the original container securely closed away from heat and<br />
sources of ignition. Do not store in open air.<br />

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION<br />
National Exposure<br />
Standards<br />
Respiratory<br />
Protection<br />
The recommended exposure limits (ACGIH) for oil mists are:<br />
TLV/TWA (8 h) - 5 mg/m3<br />
TLV/STEL - 10 mg/m3<br />
Not normally required. If oil mist cannot be controlled, a respirator fitted with<br />
an organic vapour cartridge combined with a particulate pre-filter should be used.<br />

Eng. Controls<br />
Wear chemical mono-goggles or full face shield if splashes are likely to occur.<br />
Neoprene or nitrile rubber gloves.<br />
Overalls or similar protective apparel. Safety glasses,goggles or faceshield as<br />
appropriate. Rubber gloves. Always work in a well ventilated area.<br />
Avoid skin and eye contact and inhalation of vapour and mist.<br />
Wear overalls, safety shoes, chemical goggles and impervious gloves.<br />
Use with adequate ventilation. If inhalation risk exists wear organic<br />
vapour/particulate respirator meeting the requirements of AS/NZS 1715 and<br />
AS/NZS 1716.<br />
Always wash hands before eating, smoking, drinking or using the toilet.<br />
Wash contaminated clothing and other protective equipment before storing<br />
or re-using.<br />
Wear overalls to minimise contamination of personal clothing. Launder overalls and<br />
undergarments regularly. Wash contaminated clothing and protective equipment<br />
before storing/re-using.<br />
Must be sufficient to prevent breathing of vapour. Maintain concentration below<br />
recommended exposure limit.<br />
