WARNING
Precautions when handling grease:
• Inflammation may occur if this gets in the eyes.
Before handling the grease, wear your safety goggles to ensure the grease
will not come in contact with the eyes.
• Inflammation may occur if the grease comes into contact with skin. Be
sure to wear protective gloves to prevent contact with skin.
• Do not take orally or eat. (Eating will cause diarrhea and vomiting.)
• Hands and fingers might be cut when opening the grease container, so
use protective gloves.
• Keep out of the reach of children.
• Do not heat the grease or place near an open flame since this could lead
to sparks and fires.
Emergency Treatment:
• If grease gets in the eyes, wash liberally with pure water for about 15 minutes
and consult a physician for treatment.
• If grease comes in contact with the skin, wash away completely with soap
and water.
• If taken internally, do not induce vomiting but promptly consult a physician
for proper treatment.

WARNING
Disposal of grease and waste containers
• Disposal methods are subject to legal regulations. Be sure that disposal
methods comply with the established legal regulations.
• Do not apply pressure to empty containers. Pressure might cause the
containers to rupture.
• Do not attempt to weld, heat, drill holes or cut these containers. Besides a
potential explosion, the remaining contents of the container might ignite
and catch fire.
