Both of these gases are toxic in very small <br /> r doses.Carbon Monoxide can kill you by taking the place of oxygen <br /> in your blood. Nitrogen Oxides affect your health over a longer <br /> period of time.Evidence also suggests that hydrocarbons(MC),diesel <br /> soot, and even gasoline vapors are possible causes of lung cancer. <br /> To minimize exposure to these deadly gases, use an exhaust <br /> ventilation system that attaches to the vehicle tailpipe or use a floor <br /> fan to direct the gases away from the service bay work area. <br /> Y <br /> EYE PROTECTION <br /> When working with a hazardous material it is important to <br /> prevent that material from being sprayed or splashed into your <br /> eyes. <br /> To{prevent contact with your eyes, safety glasses with side <br /> shields or a full face shield must be used. <br /> If you normally wear glasses on the job, be sure to get a pair <br /> of prescription industrial safety glasses. <br /> Always wear eye protection when working with solvent ,r <br /> liquids, aerosol containers and especially Freon. Freon can freeze <br /> an eyeball in seconds and can also cause instant frostbite. <br /> SKIN1BODY PROTECTION <br /> ❑ You already know that your eyes and lungs need protec- <br /> ._ tion from hazardous materials, but what about your skin and <br /> the rest of your body? <br /> Safety shoes and boots don't only prevent serious foot <br /> injuries from falling objects, they also protect against <br /> hazardous liquids. <br /> •Special gloves should be used when handling hazardous <br /> liquids like solvents, sulfuric acid for batteries, and most <br /> automotive fluids—especially used fluids. Skin contact with <br /> used crankcase oil should be prevented and solvent should <br /> never be used to clean skin. <br /> 'J •Proper protective suits and aprons protect your clothes, <br /> ` skin,and body from hazardous materials. Using a high <br /> pressure steam cleaner with a caustic liquid or detergent to <br /> remove dirt and grime from vehicle parts and undercar- <br /> riages is one example of when protective clothing is <br /> necessary. <br /> 21 <br /> V _Copyrgnt'987 KLM A=rnoOve PutliShing Inc. <br />
