=====================  Hazards Identification  =====================

Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES  Skin:YES  Ingestion:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION: ACUTE SIGNS OF
    OVEREXPOSURE COULD BE HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, UPPER
    RESPIRATORY DRYNESS OR IRRITATION, DROWSINESS, METAL DEPRESSION OR
    NARCOSIS, DIFFICULTY IN BREATHING. CHRONIC EFFECT S OF OVEREXPOSURE
    TO SOLVENT VAPORS COULD LEAD TP PERMANENT EFFECTS TO THE NERVOUS
    SYSTEM, BODY ORGANS, OR THE BRAIN. USE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. 
    EYES: IRRITATION. SKIN: REMOVAL OF SKIN OILS, IRRI TATION,
    DERMATITIS, EVEN SENSITIZATION WITH LONG OVEREXPOSURE. INGESTION:
    MAY BE HARMFUL OR FATAL IF SWALLOWED.

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:INHALATION: GET FRESH AIR, IF NECESSARY CALL PHYSICIAN.SKIN:
    WASH WITH MILD SOAP AND WATER, APPLY A MILD CREAM. EYES: FLUSH WITH
    WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. INGESTION: CALL POISON CENTER
    IMMEDIATEL Y.

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================
