SECTION 3  HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION



************************************************************************************************************************
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW


************************************************************************************************************************
IMMEDIATE HEALTH EFFECTS
Eye:
Not expected to cause prolonged or significant eye irritation.
Skin: Contact with the skin is not expected to cause prolonged or significant irritation.  Not expected to be harmful to internal organs if absorbed through the skin.
Ingestion: Not expected to be harmful if swallowed.
Inhalation: Not expected to be harmful if inhaled.  Contains a petroleum-based mineral oil.  May cause respiratory irritation or other pulmonary effects following prolonged or repeated inhalation of oil mist at airborne levels above the recommended mineral oil mist exposure limit.  Symptoms of respiratory irritation may include coughing and difficulty breathing.






SECTION 4  FIRST AID MEASURES



Eye:
No specific first aid measures are required.  As a precaution,  remove contact lenses, if worn, and flush eyes with water.
Skin: No specific first aid measures are required.  As a precaution, remove clothing and shoes if contaminated.  To remove the material from skin, use soap and water.  Discard contaminated clothing and shoes or thoroughly clean before reuse.
Ingestion: No specific first aid measures are required.  Do not induce vomiting.  As a precaution, get medical advice.
Inhalation: No specific first aid measures are required.  If exposed to excessive levels of material in the air, move the exposed person to fresh air.  Get medical attention if coughing or respiratory discomfort occurs.


SECTION 5  FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES




FIRE CLASSIFICATION:
OSHA Classification (29 CFR 1910.1200): Not classified by OSHA as flammable or combustible.

NFPA RATINGS: Health: 0       Flammability: 1     Reactivity: 0

FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES:
Flashpoint:
(Cleveland Open Cup)  392 °F (200 °C) (Min)
Autoignition:   NDA
Flammability (Explosive) Limits (% by volume in air):  Lower:   NA Upper:   NA

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish flames.

PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS:
Fire Fighting Instructions:
This material will burn although it is not easily ignited.  For fires involving this material, do not enter any enclosed or confined fire space without proper protective equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus.
Combustion Products: Highly dependent on combustion conditions.  A complex mixture of airborne solids, liquids, and gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified organic compounds will be evolved when this material undergoes combustion.    Combustion may form oxides of: Calcium, Sulfur, Zinc, Boron, Molybdenum, Nitrogen .


SECTION 6  ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES



Protective Measures:
Eliminate all sources of ignition in vicinity of spilled material.
Spill Management: Stop the source of the release if you can do it without risk.   Contain release to prevent further contamination of soil, surface water or groundwater.  Clean up spill as soon as possible, observing precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection.  Use appropriate techniques such as applying non-combustible absorbent materials or pumping.  Where feasible and appropriate, remove contaminated soil.  Place contaminated materials in disposable containers and dispose of in a manner consistent with applicable regulations.
Reporting: Report spills to local authorities and/or the U.S. Coast Guard's National Response Center at (800) 424-8802 as appropriate or required.


SECTION 7  HANDLING AND STORAGE



Precautionary Measures: Keep out of the reach of children.
General Handling Information: Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage and drainage systems and bodies of water.
Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling this material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not, by themselves, be sufficient. Review all operations which have the potential of generating an accumulation of electrostatic charge and/or a flammable atmosphere (including tank and container filling, splash filling, tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading, filtering, mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations) and use appropriate mitigating procedures. For more information, refer to OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.106, 'Flammable and Combustible Liquids', National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 77, 'Recommended Practice on Static Electricity', and/or the American Petroleum Institute (API) Recommended Practice 2003, 'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray Currents'.
Container Warnings: Container is not designed to contain pressure. Do not use pressure to empty container or it may rupture with explosive force.  Empty containers retain product residue (solid, liquid, and/or vapor) and can be dangerous.  Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose such containers to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity, or other sources of ignition.  They may explode and cause injury or death.  Empty containers should be completely drained, properly closed, and promptly returned to a drum reconditioner or disposed of properly.


SECTION 8  EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION



GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:
Consider the potential hazards of this material (see Section 3), applicable exposure limits, job activities, and other substances in the work place when designing engineering controls and selecting personal protective equipment.  If engineering controls or work practices are not adequate to prevent exposure to harmful levels of this material, the personal protective equipment listed below is recommended.  The user should read and understand all instructions and limitations supplied with the equipment since protection is usually provided for a limited time or under certain circumstances.

Special note:  Do not use in breathing air apparatus or medical equipment.

ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Use in a well-ventilated area.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Eye/Face Protection:
No special eye protection is normally required.  Where splashing is possible, wear safety glasses with side shields as a good safety practice.
Skin Protection: No special protective clothing is normally required.  Where splashing is possible, select protective clothing depending on operations conducted, physical requirements and other substances.  Suggested materials for protective gloves include: 4H (PE/EVAL), Nitrile Rubber, Silver Shield, Viton.  
Respiratory Protection: No respiratory protection is normally required.  
If user operations generate an oil mist, determine if airborne concentrations are below the occupational exposure limit for mineral oil mist.  If not, wear an approved respirator that provides adequate protection from the measured concentrations of this material.  For air-purifying respirators use a particulate cartridge.
Use a positive pressure air-supplying respirator in circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection.

ADDITIONAL TOXICOLOGY INFORMATION:
This product contains petroleum base oils which may be refined by various processes including severe solvent extraction, severe hydrocracking, or severe hydrotreating.  None of the oils requires a cancer warning under the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200).  These oils have not been listed in the National Toxicology Program (NTP) Annual Report nor have they been classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as; carcinogenic to humans (Group 1), probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A), or possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B).

During use in engines, contamination of oil with low levels of cancer-causing combustion products occurs.  Used motor oils have been shown to cause skin cancer in mice following repeated application and continuous exposure.  Brief or intermittent skin contact with used motor oil is not expected to have serious effects in humans if the oil is thoroughly removed by washing with soap and water.
