General precautions for chemical agents (adhesives, greases, IPA)
Observe all safety precautions relevant to the country of operation. As a general rule, protective
overalls, gloves and goggles should be worn when handling these chemical agents, but different
countries may have additional requirements which must be observed.
Ensure that all chemical agents are handled in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions,
and that suitable protective clothing is worn.
Make sure that the working area is well ventilated, and that chemical substances are not left
exposed. Observe good hygiene practices; do not eat, drink or smoke when handling chemicals.
Cyanoacrylate adhesives bond instantly on contact. If skin is bonded, it can usually be released
by a gentle peeling action; above all, do not panic and avoid direct pulling on bonded skin.
Read the manufacturer's instructions before using any chemical agent.
