Safety Avoid Heating Near Pressurized Fluid Lines Flammable spray can be generated by heating near pressurized fluid lines, resulting in severe burns to yourself and bystanders. Do not heat by welding, soldering, or using a torch near pressurized fluid lines or other flammable materials. Pressurized lines can be accidentally cut when heat goes beyond the immediate flame area.

Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is heated by welding, soldering, or using a torch.
–UN–23AUG88 Remove paint before heating: • Remove paint a minimum of 101 mm (4 in.) from area to be affected by heating. If paint cannot be removed, TS220 wear an approved respirator before heating or welding. • If you sand or grind paint, avoid breathing the dust. Wear an approved respirator. • If you use solvent or paint stripper, remove stripper with soap and water before welding. Remove solvent or paint stripper containers and other flammable material from area. Allow fumes to disperse at least 15 minutes before welding or heating. Do not use a chlorinated solvent in areas where welding will take place. Do all work in an area that is well ventilated to carry toxic fumes and dust away.
Dispose of paint and solvent properly. DX,PAINT –19–24JUL02–1/1 01 000 5
