Ag-Chem Europe b.v.
equipment include such
items as fuel, lubricants, coolants, hydraulic fluid, paints
and adhesives.
The Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provides specific
details on hazardous chemical products: physical and
health hazards, safety procedures and emergency
response techniques.
Check the MSDS before starting any project using a
hazardous chemical. Know exactly what the risks are and
how to do the project safely. Follow procedures and
equipment recommendations.
