DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
drowsiness. In extreme cases, loss of
consciousness may result. Long term exposure to
vapor concentrations may result in adverse health
effects.
Prolonged contact with the skin may have a
defatting effect which may lead to skin irritation
and in some cases, dermatitis.
Splashes entering the eye will cause discomfort
and possible damage.
Any spraying should preferably be carried out in
exhaust ventilated booths, removing vapors and
spray droplets from the breathing zone.
Wear appropriate gloves, eye and respiratory
protection. Asbestos dust
waste should be dampened, placed
in a sealed container and marked for safe disposal.
If any cutting or drilling is attempted on materials
(
containing asbestos the item should be dampened "
and only hand tools or low speed power tools used.
Battery Acids
See also Acids and Alkalis.
Gases released during charging are explosive.
Never use naked flames or allow sparks near
charging or recently charged batteries.
Make sure there is adequate ventilation.
Brake and Clutch Linings and Pads
Antifreeze
See Asbestos.
See also Fire, Solvents.
For example isopropanol, ethylene glycol,
methanol.
Highly flammable, flammable, combustible.
Used in vehicle coolant systems, brake air pressure
systems, screenwash solutions.
Vapors may be given off from coolant antifreeze
(glycol) when heated. Avoid breathing these
vapors.
Antifreeze may be absorbed through the skin in
toxic or harmful quantities. Antifreeze, if swallowed,
can be fatal and MEDICAL ATTENTION SHOULD
BE SOUGHT IMMEDIATELY.
These products must not be used in any cooling
or industrial water system that is connected or
linked to general, food preparation or drinking water
supplies.
Asbestos
See also Warning Symbols on Vehicles at the end
of this subsection.
Breathing asbestos dust may cause lung damage
or, in some cases, cancer.
Used in brake and clutch linings, transmission
brake bands and gaskets.
The use of drum cleaning units, vacuum cleaning
or damp wiping is preferred.
Brake Fluids (Polyal kylene Glycols)
See also Fire.
Splashes to the skin and eyes are slightly irritating.
Avoid skin and
eye'contact as far as possible.
Inhalation vapor hazards do not arise at ambient
temperatures because of the very low vapor
pressure.
Brazing
See Welding.
Chemical Materials
See also Legal Aspects.
Chemical materials such as solvents, sealers,
adhesives, paints, resin foams, battery acids,
antifreeze, brake fluids, fuels, oils and grease
should always be used with caution and stored and
handled with care. They may be toxic, harmful,
corrosive, irritant or highly flammable and give rise
to hazardous fumes and dusts.
The effects of excessive exposure to chemicals may be immediate or delayed; briefly experienced
or permanent; cumulative; superficial; life
threatening; or may reduce life expectancy.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Chemical Materials - Do's
/ I - Do carefully read and observe hazard and
precaution warnings given on material
containers (labels) and in any accompanying
leaflets, posters or other instructions. Material
health and safety data sheets can be obtained
from manufacturers.
- Do remove chemical materials from the skin
and clothing as soon as practicable after soiling.
Change heavily soiled clothing and have it
cleaned.
- Do organize work practices and protective
clothing to avoid soiling of the skin and eyes;
breathing vapors, aerosols, dusts or fumes;
inadequate container labeling; fire and explosion
hazards.
- Do wash before job breaks, before eating,
smoking, drinking or using toilet facilities when
handling chemical materials.
- Do keep work areas clean, uncluttered and free
of spills.
- Do store chemical materials according to
national and local regulations.
- Do keep chemical materials out of the reach of
( ' children.
- Do not clean hands or clothing with chemicals.
Chemicals, particularly solvents and fuels, will
dry the skin and may cause irritation leading to
dermatitis or be absorbed through the skin in
toxic or harmful quantities.
- Do not use emptied containers for other
materials except when they have been cleaned
under supervised conditions.
- Do not sniff or smell chemical materials. Brief
exposure to high concentrations of fumes can
be toxic or harmful.
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC)
There is concern in the scientific community that
CFCs and Halons are depleting the upper ozone
layer which filters out harmful ultraviolet radiation.
Decreased filtration of ultraviolet radiation may
result in increases in skin cancer, cataracts and
immune system suppression in humans, as well
as decreased productivity of crops and aquatic
systems.
CFCs are used primarily as refrigerants in vehicle
air conditioning systems and as aerosol
propellants. Halons are used as fire extinguishants.
Clutch Fluids
Chemical Materials - Do Nots
See Brake fluids.
- Do not mix chemical materials except under the
manufacturers instructions; some chemicals can
form other toxic or harmful chemicals, give off
toxic or harmful fumes or become explosive
when mixed together.
- Do not spray chemical materials, particularly
those based on solvents, in confined spaces,
for example when people are inside a vehicle.
- Do not apply heat or flame to chemical materials
except under the manufacturers instructions. Some are highly flammable and some may
release toxic or harmful fumes.
- Do not leave containers open. Fumes given off
can build up to toxic, harmful or explosive
concentrations. Some fumes are heavier than
air and will accumulate in confined areas such
as pits.
- Do not transfer chemical materials to unlabelled
containers.
Clutch Linings and Pads
See Asbestos.
Corrosion Protection Materials
See also Solvents, Fire.
Highly flammable, flammable
- observe No
Smoking policy.
These materials are varied and the manufacturers instructions must be followed. They may contain
solvents, resins or petroleum products. Skin and
eye contact should be avoided. They should only be sprayed in conditions of adequate ventilation
and not in confined spaces.
Cutting
See Welding.

Brake Testing
A WARNING:When brake testing, avoid
breathing the fumes from hot brakes, this
may contain asbestos dust which is
hazardous to health. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in personal injury.
For additional information, refer to: Health
and Safety Precautions
(1 00-00 General
Information, Description and Operation).
CAUTIONS:
A Avoid brake testing on busy roads where
it may cause inconvenience or danger to
other road users.
A Brake testing which includes heavy brake
applications should not be carried out with
new brake
padsldiscs or liningsldrums
until the components have bedded-in. New
brake friction components will not reach
full efficiency until the bedding-in process
is complete.
Test the brakes at several speeds within the normal
operating range using both light and heavy pedal
pressure. Note any tendency to snatch, pull or
drag, and any undue delay in application or
release.
Allow the vehicle to coast and note any tendency
to pull to one side, or evidence that the brakes are
binding.
After stopping the vehicle (not immediately after a
period of heavy braking), carefully check the brake
temperature.
A brake disc or brake drum that feels
hot or is appreciably hotter than the others,
indicates that the brake is binding.
After completion of the test, check for:
