FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as gasoline, solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To
help prevent fire and explosion:
•
Use water-based materials when spraying and cleaning.

•
Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop
cloths (potential static arc).
•
Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and gasoline.
•
Do not plug or unplug power cords or turn lights on or off when flammable fumes are present.
