First aid measures After inhalation provide fresh air. Consult a physician if complaints persist. After skin contact, wash immediately with soap and water, and rinse thoroughly. Consult a physician if skin irritation persists. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting, rinse mouth and drink plenty of water, seek medical advice immediately.
Ensure suitable personal protection with dry temporary backing or cover with sufficient insulation against the ground potential. The temporary backing or cover must completely cover the entire area between the body and the ground potential. All cables and leads must be secured, undamaged, insulated, and adequately dimen- sioned.
Particular hazard Special regulations apply in areas at risk of fire or explosion areas Follow the appropriate national and international regulations. Devices for work in areas with increased electrical hazard (such as boilers) must be labeled with the symbol [S] (Safety). Measurements of toxic emissions when working with the device showed values below permissible "average workplace concentrations"...
