Modelandsupportmaterialsaremadeofresins.Althoughprecautions
mustbetakenwhenhandlingresinsdirectly,allmodelandsupport
materialsusedbytheEdensystemarehandledinsealedcartridges.
Normally,operatorsoftheEdenprintershouldneverbedirectlyexposed
todangerousmaterials.Mostofthefollowingrecommendations
for
handlingresinsapplytotheunlikelyeventofaleakorspill.Ifthisshould
occur,followthespecificinstructionsprintedontheprinting‐material
cartridgeused.
¾ Storecartridgesofmodelandsupportmaterialsindoors,inadryarea
withadequateventilation,between16‐27degreesCelsius(60‐81
degreesFahrenheit).Neverexposethemtoflames,heat,sparks,or
directsunlight.
¾ Keepmodelandsupportmaterialsawayfromareaswherefoodand
drinkarestored,preparedandconsumed.
¾ Uncuredresinisconsideredahazardousmaterial,requiringcertain
precautionswhenhandlingit.Topreventskinirritation,wear
protectivegloves,ifnecessary.Ifthereisanychancethatmodeland
supportmaterialsmightsplashintotheeyes,wearsafetygoggles.
Prolongeddirectcontactwithresinscancauseanallergicreaction.
¾ Topreventrespiratoryirritation,ventilateareaswheremodeland
supportmaterialsareused.Theventilationsystemshouldtotally
replacetheair20timesperhour.
¾ Cleanmodel‐materialandsupport‐materialspillswithdisposable
towelsorotherabsorbent,non‐reusablematerial,suchassawdustor
activatedcharcoal.Rinsethespillareawithdenaturedorisopropyl
alcohol(IPA),followedbysoapandwater.Disposeoftheabsorbent
materialinaccordancewithlocalregulations.
¾ Donotwashcontaminatedclothingathome;clothingshouldbe
professionallylaundered.
¾ Disposeofcontaminatedshoes,beltsandotherleatheritems.Absorbed
resinmayre‐exposetheuserwhentheseitemsarewornagain.
