3 Contains petroleum distillate - vomiting may cause aspiration pneumonia. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Suitable (and unsuitable) extinguishing media: Use dry chemical, foam or CO2 extinguishing media. If water is used to fight fire, dike and collect runoff. Specific Hazards: During a fire, irritating and possibly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters: Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. Evacuate nonessential personnel from the area to prevent human exposure to fire, smoke, fumes or products of combustion. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Follow exposure controls/personal protection outlined in Section 8. Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Control the spill at its source. Contain the spill to prevent from spreading or contaminating soil or from entering sewage and drainage systems or any body of water. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions outlined in Section 8. Sweep up material and place in a compatible disposal container. Scrub area with hard water detergent (e.g. commercial products such as Tide, Joy, Spic and Span). Pick up wash liquid with additional absorbent and place into compatible disposal container. Once all material is cleaned up and placed in a disposal container, seal container and arrange for disposition. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for safe handling: Store the material in a well-ventilated, secure area out of reach of children and domestic animals. Do not store food, beverages or tobacco products in the storage area. Prevent eating, drinking, tobacco use, and cosmetic application in areas where there is a potential for exposure to the material. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store locked up. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION ARE INTENDED FOR THE MANUFACTURE, FORMULATION AND PACKAGING OF THIS PRODUCT. FOR COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS AND/OR ON-FARM APPLICATIONS CONSULT THE PRODUCT LABEL.

Individual protection measures: Ingestion: Prevent eating, drinking, tobacco usage and cosmetic application in areas where there is a potential for exposure to the material. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Eye Contact: Where eye contact is likely, use dust-proof chemical goggles. Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Skin Contact: Where contact is likely, wear chemical-resistant gloves (such as barrier laminate, butyl rubber, nitrile rubber or Viton), coveralls, socks and chemical-resistant footwear. Inhalation: A particulate filter respirator may be necessary until effective engineering controls are installed to comply with occupational exposure limits. Use NIOSH certified respirator with any N, R, P or HE filter. Use a self-contained breathing apparatus in cases of emergency spills, when exposure levels are unknown, or under any circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection. 9.
