Disposal P501 Dispose of contents/container to an approved waste disposal plant. IMPORTANT NOTE(S) When this product is used in a welding process the following hazards are important. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions, Safety Data Sheets and the precautionary labels before using this product. Heat: Splatter, hot, or molten metals can cause burns and start fires. Welding arc and sparks can ignite combustible and flammable materials. Radiation: Arc rays can damage skin and eyes. Electrical: Electric shock can kill. Fumes: Welding can generate fumes, mists, dust, vapours and gases, including metallic oxides, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, as well as solid particles, or other constituents from the consumables, base metal, or base metal coating. Overexposure to welding fumes and gases can be hazardous. The amounts and types of fumes produced vary greatly depending on the process involved and the materials being used such as: metals, solvents, flux, paint and plastics. The health effects of exposure to fumes, dust, vapour and gases can vary. Effects can include irritation of the upper respiratory tract (nose and throat), tightness in the chest, asphyxiation, asthma, wheezing, metal fume fever, lung damage, bronchitis, cancer, pneumonia or emphysema. The short-term overexposure to fume and gases from welding may result in: metal fume fever, dizziness, nausea or dryness or irritant to the respiratory systems or eyes. May aggravate pre-existing respiratory problems. The long-term overexposure to fume and gases from welding can lead to: siderosis (iron deposits in lung), central nervous system effects, bronchitis and other pulmonary effects. Welding fumes may contain substances that are suspected of being carcinogenic. If welding must be performed in damp locations or with wet clothing, on metal structures or when in cramped positions such as sitting, kneeling or lying, or if there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact with work piece, use the following equipment: Semiautomatic DC Welder, DC Manual (Stick) Welder, or AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.
