*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:USE RESPIRABLE FUMES RESPIRATOR OR AIR SUPPLIED
    RESPIRATORS WHEN WELDING IN CONFINED SPACES OR WHERE LOCAL EXHAUST
    OR VENTILATION DOES NOT KEEP EXPOSURE BELOW TLV.
Ventilation:USE ENOUGH VENTILATION WHEN CUTTING, GRINDING OR WELDING TO
    KEEP THE DUST, FUMES & GASES FROM THE WORKERS BREATHING ZONE
Other Protective Equipment:WEAR HEAD, HAND AND BODY PROTECTION WHICH
    WILL HELP TO PROTECT THE WORKERS FROM INJURY, RADIATION, SPARKS, &
    SHOCK.
Work Hygienic Practices:TRAIN TE WELDERS NOT TO TOUCH LIVE ELECTRICAL
    PARTS AND TO INSULATE HIMSELF FROM WORK AND GROUND.

Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:SHORT TERM EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES
    MAY RESULT IN DISCOMFORT. LONG TERM EXPOSURE MAY LEAD TO SIDEROSIS
    (FROM IRON DEPOSITS IN THE LUNGS) AND IS BELEVED BY SOME
    INVESTIGATORS TO AFFECT PULMONARY FUNCT IONS. ARC RAYS CAN INJURE
    EYES & BURN SKIN. ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:CONTAINS NICKEL & CHROMIUM.  SEE THE
    INDIVIDUAL IARC & NTP REPORTS FOR DETAILS OF CARCINOGENICITY.
Effects of Overexposure:EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT IN
    DISCOMFORT SUCH AS DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, FEVER, DRYNESS AND/OR
    IRRITATION OF NOSE, THROAT AND EYES.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:AGGRAVATION OF PRE-EXISTING
    RESPIRATORY OR ALLERGIC CONDITIONS MAY OCCUR IN SOME WORKERS.
