2 Safety Regulations
The proper handling of solvent is an important prerequisite for workplace safety.
Note the following potential hazards:
Solvents are very good grease removers; they also remove natural oils from unprotected skin.
Protection: Wear solvent-resistant protective gloves; apply skin cream with oil to the hands.
Liquid solvents are strongly irritating to the eyes.
Protection: Wear protective goggles.
Solvents are combustible.
Protection: Avoid ignition sources (smoking, sparks, fire).
Risk of explosion if the flash point is lowered.
Protection: You must use solvents that have a flash point that is higher than the temperature
stated on the machine nameplate. Use only chemical additives that do not lower the flash point.
Ignition sources
Protection: Check pockets for cigarette lighters, matches and metallic objects.
Do not overload the machine!
You must hang up any operating instructions from the Clothing Mutual Indemnity Association in a
visible location. The German Hazardous Substances Ordinance and the VBG 66 stipulate the
obligation for operating instructions.
