Immersion oil
• When using immersion oil, it is essential to read the relevant safety data sheet.
Immersion oil irritates the skin. Therefore avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
• In case of skin contact: wash off with plenty of water and soap.
• In case of eye contact: rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least
5 minutes.
• In case of prolonged irritation: consult a specialist.
Depending on the type of oil used, it might be harmful to the environment, espe-
cially aquatic organisms.
