GLUES (SEE ADHESIVE AND SEALERS)
HIGH-PRESSURE AIR, LUBRICATION AND
OIL TEST EQUIPMENT
(SEE LUBRICANTS AND GREASES)
Always keep high-pressure equipment in good
condition and regularly maintained, particularly joint
and unions.
Never direct a high-pressure nozzle at the skin, as
the fluid may penetrate to the underlying tissue and
can cause serious injury.
LEGAL ASPECTS
Many laws and regulations make requirements
relating to health and safety in the use of materials
and equipment in workshops.
Workshops should be familiar, in detail, with these
laws and regulations.
LUBRICANTS AND GREASES
Avoid all prolonged and repeated contact with
mineral oils, especially used oils. Gross and
prolonged skin contact with used oils contaminated
during service, i.e., routine service change sump oils,
are more irritating and more likely to cause serious
effects, including skin cancer.
Wash skin thoroughly after work involving oil.
Proprietary hand cleaners may be of value provided
they can be removed from the skin with water. Do not
use petrol, paraffin, or other solvents to remove oil
from the skin.
Lubricants and greases may be slightly irritating to
the eyes.
Repeated or prolonged skin contact should be avoided
by wearing protective clothing, if necessary. Particular
care should be taken with used oils and greases
containing lead. Do not allow work clothing to be
contaminated with oil. Dry clean or launder such
clothing at regular intervals. Discard oil-soaked shoes.
Do not use previously used engine oils as lubricants
or for any application where major skin contact is
likely to occur. Used oils may only be disposed of in
accordance with local regulations.
Refer to the "Recommended Lubricants and
Coolants Charts", for the recommended lubricants.

CAUTION
Highly flammable.
Paints can contain harmful or toxic pigments, driers,
and other components, as well as solvents. Spraying
should only be carried out with adequate ventilation.
Two-part or catalysed paints can also contain
harmful and toxic unreacted resins and resin-
hardening agents. The manufacturer's instructions
should be followed and the section on resin-based
adhesives, isocyanate containing adhesive and
foams should be consulted.
Spraying should preferably be carried out in
exhausted ventilated booths, removing vapour and
spray mists from the breathing zone. Individuals
working in booths should wear respiratory protection.
Those doing small-scale repair work in the open
shop should wear supplied air respirators.

RESISTANCE WELDING (SEE WELDING)
SEALERS (SEE ADHESIVES AND
SEALERS)
SOLDER (SEE WELDING)
Solders are mixtures of metals in which the melting
point of the mixture is below that of constituent metals
(normally lead and tin). Solder application does not
normally give rise to toxic lead fumes, provided a
gas/air flame is used. Oxyacetylene flames should
not be used, as they are much hotter and will cause
lead fumes to be released.
Some fumes may be produced by the application of
anyflame to surfaces coated with grease, etc., and
inhalation of these should be avoided.
