Chemistry Hazards
Chemical safety for the Jeti Tauro H3300LED is limited to the lubricants, inks and solvents used in op-
eration and maintenance of the machine and its components. Consider the safety precautions listed in
this section in order to prevent injury during the use of such materials.
Chemical Material Safety Data Sheet
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) are available at this web site: www.agfagraphics.com/msds.
Inks can:
• Irritate the eyes, the respiratory system and the skin.
• Harm aquatic organisms and cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment if not
properly disposed of.
Follow these chemical safety precautions at all times:
• Avoid skin, eye, and open sore contact with any chemicals, lubricants or solvents.
When cleaning the print heads and when handling chemicals, lubricants and solvents always wear
nitrile gloves and safety glasses.
Nitrile gloves have a lifetime limited to 10 minutes when in contact with the ink.
Always dispose the nitrile gloves after usage.
• Protective safety glasses must be chemical and shatter-resistant. We also recommend having side
shields installed on the glasses. The operator should wear goggles or a full-face shield where
necessary.
• Always wash hands after using chemicals, lubricants or solvents.
• Always wash clothing exposed to chemicals, lubricants or solvents.
• Wear a smock or protective layered clothing during the use of chemicals, lubricants or solvents in
case of a spill or contact, so that the user can easily remove these articles to prevent damage.
• The operator and nearby persons should communicate their intentions to one another in order to
prevent inadvertent contact with another person and to avoid a hazardous spill.
• Ensure that proper ventilation is available and keep distance from high-energy heat sources during
the use of chemicals, lubricants and solvents.
• Do not leave jugs, tubes, cans or any other type of container holding chemicals open and
unattended.
• Do not use ingestion as a means of identifying a chemical.
Ink and Solvent First Aid Measures
• Agfa Graphics recommends the installation of a safety eyewash station close
to the chemical use area.
