Risk of death from explosions!
•
It must be ensured, that during the entire removal, there is no
explosive mixture of gas and air present.
Substrate fumes emit toxic substances!
•
Inhalation of substrate fumes can lead to serious health issues with
possible fatal consequences. It is essential to ensure that there is
sufficient aeration and/or extraction of fumes! Carry a gas detector
with you.
Risk of death or injury due to improper behaviour!
•
It is to be ensured, that removal work is performed exclusively by
