WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious
injury or death.
Eye Protection
Be sure to use all personal protective
equipment to ensure your own safety. To avoid
eye injury, always wear protective glasses with
side shields when using power tools. Also, make sure
no one else can be injured by flying particles when using
power tools.
Fire Hazard
Personal injury or death can
result from a fire caused by
flammable liquids, vapors, or
acrylic adhesives. Cleaners or solvents can be highly
explosive, resulting in personal injury or even death,
when not used properly. Clean up any flammable
substance immediately. Sparks or open flames can
cause flammable substances to ignite. DO NOT smoke
while working on or near any flammable substance.
Solvents Hazard
Follow all manufacturer’s safety instructions for
denatured alcohol. Vapors are both flammable
and hazardous to breathe. Vapors may irritate
eyes and nose. Direct contact with the skin can cause
irritation, itching, and pain. Personal injury can result
from improperly handling or use of solvents, such as
denatured alcohol. Always follow the manufacturer’s
recommendations for the safe use of these products.
Fumes Hazard
The fumes from solvents and the
acrylic adhesives used by the installer
can be harmful if used in an
unventilated room. Always work in a well-ventilated
area. To keep the area well-ventilated, open windows
and use exhaust fans. If adequate ventilation is not
achievable or practical, use protective respiratory
equipment.
Dust Hazard
When cutting or drilling the product,
use a dust collection method which
prevents dust particles from going into
the air. Always work in a well-ventilated area. Always
use an OSHA approved dust mask when cutting, drilling,
or sanding Swan Corporation products.
Power Tool Hazard
To prevent personal injury or possible
death, always follow the electrical safety
recommendations of the power tool’s
manufacturer. Do not use power tools in an unsafe
manner. Power tools should only be connected to a circuit
protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFI).
Shock Hazard
Never use electric power tools around
water, condensation, or other liquids.
Electric shock can cause severe
burns, significant injuries, and even death. If an
extension cord is required, always use an OSHA
approved extension cord. Power cords should only be
connected to a circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit
interrupter (GFI).
