*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:FOR CONDITIONS OF USE WHERE EXPOSURE TO THE DUST
    OR MIST IS APPARENT, A HALF-FACE DUST/MIST RESPIRATOR MAY BE WORN.
    FOR EMERGENCIES OR INSTANCES WHERE THE EXPOSURE LEVELS ARE NOT
    KNOWN, USE A FULL-FAC E POSITIVE-PRESSURE, AIR-SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR.
    WARNING: AIR-PURIFYING RESPIRATORS DO NOT PROTECT WORKERS IN
    OXYGEN-DEFICIENT ATMOSPHERES.
Ventilation:A SYSTEM OF LOCAL AND/OR GENERAL EXHAUST IS RECOMMENDED TO
    KEEP EMPLOYEE EXPOSURES AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. LOCAL EXHAUST
    VENTILATION  (CONTD. SEE "WORK HYGENIC")
    DUSTING OR SPLASHING.
Other Protective Equipment:WEAR IMPERVIOUS PROTECTIVE CLOTHING,
    APPROPRIATE, TO PREVENT SKIN CONTACT. PROVIDE EYE WASH FOUNTAIN AND
    QUICK-DRENCH FACILITIES IN WORK AREA.
Work Hygienic Practices:(CONTD. FROM "VENTILATION") IS GENERALLY
    PREFERRED BECAUSE IT CAN CONTROL THE EMISIONS OF THE CONTAMINANT AT
    ITS SOURCE, PREVENTING DISPERSION INTO THE GENERAL WORK AREA.
