SECTION III - HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: If overcome by vapors, remove from exposure
immediately; call a physician. If breathing is irregular or stopped, start resuscitation, administer oxygen.
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting; call a physician. Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin
with soap and water. Flush eyes with water until irritation subsides.
PRIMARY ROUTE (S) OF ENTRY: INGESTION AND INHALATION
VARIABILITY AMONG INDIVIDUALS: Health Studies have shown that many petroleum
hydrocarbons and synthetic lubricants pose potential human health risks which may vary from person to
person. As a precaution, exposure to liquids, vapors, mists and fumes should be minimized.
NATURE OF HAZARD AND TOXICITY INFORMATION: Prolonged or repeated skin contact with
this product tends to remove skin oils possibly leading to irritation and dermatitis: however, based on
human experiences and available toxicological data, this product is judged to be neither a "corrosive" nor
an "irritant".
PAGE 2: DIESEL FUEL SUPPLEMENT +CETANE BOOST 1:1500
Potential risk to humans can be minimized by observing good work practices and personal hygiene
procedures generally recommended for petroleum products. The product has a low order of acute
toxicity, but minute amounts aspirated into the lungs during ingestion may cause severe pulmonary injury
or death.
SECTION IV - FIRST AID MEASURES
EYE CONTACT: Flush eyes with large amounts of water until irritation subsides. If irritation persists,
get medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT: Flush with large amounts of water, use soap if available. Remove grossly
contaminated clothing, including shoes and launder before re-use.
INHALATION: Using proper respiration protection, immediately remove the affected victim from
exposure. Administer artificial respiration if breathing is stopped. Keep at rest. Call for prompt medical
attention.
INGESTION: If swallowed do not induce vomiting. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical attention.

EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Avoid breathing vapor. Inhalation of high vapor concentrations may
have results ranging from dizziness and headaches to unconsciousness. Prolonged or repeated liquid
contact will dry and defat the skin leading to irritation and dermatitis. Irritating to respiratory system and
may cause central nervous system depression, headaches and dizziness. Harmful if swallowed and may
cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
