*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF USE, RESPIRATORY
    PROTECTION IS NOT REQUIRED. HOWEVER, IF CONDITIONS ARISE THAT
    REQUIRE THEIR USE, USE ONLY NIOSH/MSHA RESPIRATORS APPROVED FOR
    DUST, FUME AND MIST.
Ventilation:BATTERY CHARGING AREAS MUST BE ADEQUATELY VENTILATED TO
    PREVENT HAZARDOUS CONCENTRATIONS OF FLAMMABLE GAS OR ACID MIST.
Other Protective Equipment:EYE WASH STATION AND SAFETY SHOWER.
    INDUSTRIAL-TYPE IMPERVIOUS WORK CLOTHING, BOOTS AND APRON AS
    REQUIRED.
Work Hygienic Practices:OBSERVE GOOD PERSONAL HYGIENE PRACTICES AND
    RECOMMENDED PROCEDURES. LAUNDER CONTAMINATED CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE.
Supplemental Safety and Health
    IS THE PRIMARY HAZARD DURING NORMAL USE AND HANDLING.

*  Hazards Identification  *
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:YES  Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NOOSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: MAY CAUSE IRRITATION OF
    RESPIRATORY TRACT, EYES, SKIN OR GI TRACT. MAY CAUSE BURNS OF SKIN,
    EYES, OR GI TRACT. MAY CAUSE CORNEAL DAMAGE OR BLINDNESS. CHRONIC:
    TOOTH EROSION, INFLAMMATION OF NOS E, THROAT AND BRONCHIAL TUBES.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:THE ELECTROLYTE IS NOT LISTED BY IARC,
    NTP, OR OSHA AS A CARCINOGEN.
Effects of Overexposure:INHALATION: BURNING SENSATION IN NOSE, THROAT
    AND LUNGS, COUGHING, WHEEZING, SHORTNESS OF BREATH. EYES: REDNESS,
    TEARING, BLURRED VISION, BURNS, SEVERE PAIN. SKIN: SEVERE PAIN,
    BURNS, REDNESS, RASH, I TCHING. INGESTION: BURNS OF MOUTH, THROAT,
    AND ESOPHAGUS, SEVERE STOMACH PAIN, NAUSEA, VOMITING.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH A HISTORY OF AILMENTS
    OR WITH A PRE-EXISTING DISEASE INVOLVING THE RESPIRATORY TRACT OR
    TEETH MAY BE AT INCREASED RISK FROM EXPOSURE.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:INHALATION:REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. RESUSCITATE IF NOT BREATHING.
    GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. EYES:IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER
    MINUTES. GET MEDICAL ADVICE.  INGESTION:DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
    GIVE NOTHING BY MOUTH IF UNCONSCIOUS. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL
    ATTENTION.
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Extinguishing Media:USE DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE, FOAM, HALOGEN.
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE OF WATER IN EXTINGUISHING BURNING
    BATTERIES MAY CAUSE SPATTERING DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF MOLTEN LEAD.
    WEAR SCBA AND FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:AFTER ELECTROLYTE IS ADDED AND BATTERY IS
    BEING CHARGED, HYDROGEN GAS IS PRODUCED. BATTERY MAY EXPLODE IF
    HYDROGEN GAS TRAPPED INSIDE THE CASE SHOULD IGNITE.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:SHOULD A BATTERY BREAK OPEN, ISOLATE AREA.
    ELECTROLYTE SHOULD BE ABSORBED WITH A NON-ORGANIC TYPE ABSORBENT
    SUCH AS DRY SAND OR EARTH. AVOID DILUTION WITH WATER. LEAD SPILLED
    FROM THE BATTERY SHOULD B E VACUUMED, DO NOT SWEEP OR USE
    COMPRESSED AIR.
Neutralizing Agent:USE SODA ASH OR BAKING SODA TO NEUTRALIZE THE
    ELECTROLYTE.
*Handling and Storage  *
Handling and Storage Precautions:AVOID THE USE OF UNINSULATED TOOLS. IF
    THEY ARE REQUIRED, TAKE CARE NOT TO ELECTRICALLY SHORT THE
    TERMINALS. REMOVE METAL JEWELRY BEFORE SERVICING.
Other Precautions:UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF USE, EXPOSURE TO LEAD OR
    LEAD CONTAINING COMPOUNDS DOES NOT OCCUR. SHOULD A BATTERY BREAK
    OPEN AND A LEAD SPILL OCCUR, PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO PREVENT
    LEAD DUST FROM  BECOMING AIR BORNE.
*  Physical/Chemical Properties  *
HCC:C1
Evaporation Rate & Reference:<1 (N-BUTYL ACETATE=1)
Solubility in Water:COMPLETE (ACID)
Appearance and Odor:NO ODOR. BATTERY CASE IS SEALED. ELECTROLYTE IS
    CLEAR OILY LIQUID.
*  Stability and Reactivity Data  *
Stability Indicator/Materials to Avoid:YES
CONTACT OF ELECTROLYTE WITH ORGANIC MATERIAL AND COMBUSTIBLES, STRONG
    ALKALIS, REDUCING AGENTS, STRONG OXIDIZING AGENTS
Stability Condition to Avoid:OVERCHARGING, SOURCES OF IGNITION
Hazardous Decomposition Products:COMBUSTION CAN PRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE
    AND CARBON DIOXIDE.
*  Disposal Considerations  *
Waste Disposal Methods:BOTH ELECTROLYTE AND SCRAP BATTERIES ARE
    REGULATED HAZARDOUS WASTE. SCRAP BATTERIES CONTAIN MATERIALS WHICH
    ARE RECYCLABLE AND MUST BE RETURNED TO AUTHORIZED RECYCLER.
    ELECTROLYTE SHOULD BE HAULED TO  A PERMITTED TREATMENT FACILITY.
