<br /> LAMMABLE PROPERTIES:
<br /> Flashpoint: (Tagliabue Closed Cup ASTM D56) < -45 °C (< -49 °F)
<br /> Utoignition: > 280°C(> 536 °F)
<br /> Iammability(Explosive) Limits (%by volume in air): Lower: 1.4 Upper: 7.6 (Typical)
<br /> ' XTINGUISHING MEDIA: Dry Chemical, CO2, AFFF Foam or alcohol resistant foam if>15% volume polar solvents (oxygenates).
<br /> PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS:
<br /> Fire Fighting Instructions: Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers and to protect personnel. For fires involving this material,
<br /> o not enter any enclosed or confined fire space without proper protective equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus.
<br /> ombustion Products: Highly dependent on combustion conditions. A complex mixture of airborne solids, liquids, and gases including
<br /> carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified organic compounds will be evolved when this material undergoes combustion.
<br /> ' SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
<br /> Protective Measures: Eliminate all sources of ignition in the vicinity of the spill or released vapor. If this material is released into the
<br /> work area, evacuate the area immediately. Monitor area with combustible gas indicator.
<br /> pill Management: Stop the source of the release if you can do it without risk. Contain release to prevent further contamination of soil,
<br /> surface water or groundwater. Clean up spill as soon as possible, observing precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use
<br /> appropriate techniques such as applying non-combustible absorbent materials or pumping. All equipment used when handling the product
<br /> tust be grounded. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Use clean non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material.
<br /> here feasible and appropriate, remove contaminated soil. Place contaminated materials in disposable containers and dispose of in a
<br /> manner consistent with applicable regulations.
<br /> eporting: Report spills to local authorities and/or the U.S. Coast Guard's National Response Center at (800)424-8802 as appropriate
<br /> Mor required. This material is covered by EPA's Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA)
<br /> Petroleum Exclusion. Therefore releases to the environment may not be reportable under CERCLA.
<br /> .[SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
<br /> Precautionary Measures: READ AND OBSERVE ALL PRECAUTIONS ON PRODUCT LABEL. This product presents an extreme fire
<br /> hazard. Liquid very quickly evaporates, even at low temperatures, and forms vapor (fumes)which can catch fire and burn with explosive
<br /> (molence. Invisible vapor spreads easily and can be set on fire by many sources such as pilot lights, welding equipment, and electrical
<br /> otors and switches. Do not store in open or unlabeled containers. Use only as a motor fuel. Do not use for cleaning, pressure appliance
<br /> fuel, or any other such use. Never siphon gasoline by mouth.
<br /> Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not taste or swallow. Do not breathe vapor or fumes. Wash thoroughly after handling.
<br /> Keep out of the reach of children.
<br /> Unusual Handling Hazards: WARNING! Do not use as portable heater or appliance fuel. Toxc fumes may accumulate and cause
<br /> death.
<br /> ,General Handling Information: Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage and drainage systems and bodies of
<br /> water.
<br /> Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling this material. To minimize this
<br /> hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not, by themselves, be sufficient. Review all operations which have the
<br /> 'potential of generating and accumulating an electrostatic charge and/or a flammable atmosphere (including tank and container filling,
<br /> splash filling, tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading, filtering, miAng, agitation, and vacuum truck operations) and use
<br /> appropriate mitigating procedures. For more information, refer to OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.106, 'Flammable and Combustible
<br /> squids', National Fire Protection Association(NFPA 77, 'Recommended Practice on Static Electricity', and/or the American Petroleum
<br /> nstitute (API) Recommended Practice 2003, 'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray Currents'. Improper
<br /> filling of portable gasoline containers creates danger of fire. Only dispense gasoline into approved and properly labeled gasoline
<br /> containers. Always place portable containers on the ground. Be sure pump nozzle is in contact with the container while filling. Do not use
<br /> Fnozzle's lock-open device. Do not fill portable containers that are inside a vehicle or truck/trailer bed.
<br /> General Storage Information: DO NOT USE OR STORE near heat, sparks, flames, or hot surfaces . USE AND STORE ONLY IN
<br /> IrELL VENTILATED AREA. Keep container closed when not in use.
<br /> ontainer Warnings: Container is not designed to contain pressure. Do not use pressure to empty container or it may rupture with
<br /> explosive force. Empty containers retain product residue (solid, liquid, and/or vapor) and can be dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld,
<br /> braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose such containers to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity, or other sources of ignition. They may
<br /> xplode and cause injury or death. Empty containers should be completely drained, properly closed, and promptly returned to a drum
<br /> econditioner or disposed of properly.
<br /> SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
<br /> GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:
<br /> Consider the potential hazards of this material (see Section 3), applicable exposure limits, job activities, and other substances in the work
<br /> 'place when designing engineering controls and selecting personal protective equipment. If engineering controls or work practices are not
