toxic and asphyxiating. If inhaled, these
fumes may even be lethal. Do not start

The following factors may pose a risk to
the operator's health:
- Operator is predisposed to poor blood
circulation in the hands.

(warm gloves are strongly recom-
mended).

periods (we suggest using it at inter-
vals).

in any way, please seek medical atten-
tion.
