Lubricating oil precautions
WARNING!
Avoid excessive skin contact with used oil. Used oil contains potentially harmful contaminants
which may cause skin cancer or other serious skin disorders.
Avoid excessive skin contact with used lubricating oils and always adhere to the health protection
precautions.
Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, particularly used engine oils.
Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where practicable.
Avoid contaminating clothes with oil (particularly those next to the skin). Overalls must be cleaned regularly.
Discard heavily soiled clothing and oil impregnated footwear.
First aid treatment should be obtained immediately for open cuts and wounds.
Apply barrier creams before each work period, to help prevent lubricating oil from contaminating the skin.
