7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Ventilate working rooms thoroughly. Avoid naked flames, sparking and sources of ignition. Switch off electrical devices. Do
not smoke, do not weld. Do not empty waste into waste water drains.
Also to be noted when processing larger amounts (> 1 kg): during processing and drying after adhesion, ventilate well. Avoid
all sources of fire such as stoves and ovens. Switch off all electrical devices such as parabolic heaters, hot plates, storage
heaters etc. in good time for them to have cooled down before commencing work. Avoid all sparks, including those occurring
at electrical switches and devices.

Wash hands before work breaks and after finishing work.
Do not eat, drink or smoke while working.
