WARNING: Drycleaning solvent, P-D-680, used to clean parts is
potentially dangerous to personnel and property. Avoid
repeated and prolonged skin contact by wearing rubber or
solvent impermeable gloves when handling the solvent or
material wet with drycleaning solvent. Wash hands immediately
after exposure with soap and water and use a lanolin based
skin cream to prevent skin drying. Do not use near open flame
or excessive heat. Flash point of solvent is 1OOoF (38C).
Ensure that ventilation adequate to reduce solvent vapor
concentrations below acceptable threshold limit values is
provided.
WARNING: When using compressed air for blowing, air hose
pressure must not exceed 30 psig, and individuals must wear eye
protective equipment.
