CLEANING AGENTS.
DO NOT use diesel fuel, gasoline, or benzene (benzol) for cleaning.
DO NOT SMOKE when using cleaning solvent. NEVER USE IT NEAR AN OPEN
FLAME. Be sure there is a fire extinguisher nearby and use cleaning solvent only
in well ventilated places. Flash point of solvent is 138° F (60°C)
USE CAUTION when using cleaning solvents. Cleaning solvents evaporate
quickly and can irritate exposed skin if solvents contact skin. In cold weather, con-
tact of exposed skin with cleaning solvents can cause frostbite.
NOTE
Only use those authorized cleaning solvents or agents listed in Appendix F
Cleaning Rust, Corrosion, and Foreign Material From Metal Parts. When cleaning metal parts, use cleaning solvent.
Then apply a thin coat of lubricating oil to the cleaned parts.
