*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:WEAR RESPIRABLE FUME RESPIRATOR/AIR SUPPLIED
    RESPIRATOR WHEN WELDING IN CONFINED SPACE, WHERE LOCAL
    EXHAUST/VENTILATION DOESN'T KEEP EXPOSURE < TLV.
Ventilation:LOCAL EXHAUST AT ARC TO KEEP FUMES/GASES < TLV IN WORKERS
    BREATHING ZONE & GENERAL AREA.
Other Protective Equipment:PROTECTIVE CLOTHING, WELDERS APRONS.
Supplemental Safety and Health
PRODUCT IS NON-HAZARDOUS UNTIL USED AS IN WELDING PURPOSES. THE
    COMPOSITION & QUANTITY OF FUMES/GASES DEPENDS ON METAL BEING
    WELDED, PROCESS, PROCEDURES, ELECTRODES USED, COATINGS, POSITION OF
    WELDERS  HEAD W/RESPECT TO THE PLUME & AS WELL AS THE PRESENCE OF
    CONTAMINANTS IN THE ATMOSPHERE.
