SUBJECT: VITON 'O' RINGS AND SEALS (FLUORO-ELASTOMERS) - SAFETY HAZARDS

PURPOSE:

To advise potentially hazardous condition.

DETAIL:

It has been brought to our attention that 'Viton' material used in manufacture of oil seals and 'O' rings, produces a
highly corrosive acid (Hydrofluoric) when subjected to temperatures above 315° C.

The resulting contamination can have extreme consequences on human tissue since it is almost impossible to
remove after contact.

We therefore recommend the following procedure when it is necessary to inspect any equipment that has been
subjected to a high temperature i.e. fire.

a. Visually inspect for any gaskets or seals which have suffered from heat; they will appear black and sticky.

b. If this is affirmed - Do Not Touch

c. Make enquiries to ascertain the material composition. Any Fluoro-elastomer (Viton, Fluorel or Tecmoflon)
should be considered dangerous but natural rubber and nitrile are non-hazardous.

d. If Fluoro-elastomer seals have been used, then the affected area MUST be decontaminated before
undertaking further work.

e. Disposable Heavy Duty Gloves (Neoprene) MUST be worn and the affected area decontaminated by washing
thoroughly with Limewater (Calcium Hydroxide solution).

f. Any cloths, residue and gloves used MUST be safely discarded after use.

Note: Burning of the discarded items is NOT RECOMMENDED, except in an approved incineration process
where the gaseous products are treated by alkaline scrubbing.

 NOTICE DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTE

Un entretien et des réparations adéquats sont importants pour la sécurité, un fonctionnement fiable de tous les véhicules à
moteur. Les procédures d’entretien recommandées et décrites dans cette publication sont des méthodes effectives
permettant l’exécution d’opérations d’entretien. Certaines de ces opérations d’entretien nécessitent l’utilisation d’outils
conçus tout particulièrement à cette fin. Les outils spéciaux doivent être utilisés lorsqu’ils sont recommandés.

Il est important de remarquer que cette publication comprend différents AVERTISSEMENTS et NOTES qui doivent être lus
avec précaution afin de minimiser le risque de blessures du personnel ou de mise en pratique de méthodes de service
inadéquat risquant d’endommager le véhicule ou de le rendre peu sûr. Il est également important de comprendre que ces
AVERTISSEMENTS et NOTES ne sont pas exhaustifs. Il n’est pas possible de connaître, d’évaluer et de faire part au
personnel de TOUTES les méthodes imaginables en fonction desquelles l’entretien peut être effectuer ou de tous les
risques possibles en résultant. Par conséquent, une évaluation aussi large n’a pas été prise en considération. Donc,
quiconque utilise une procédure d’entretien ou un outil qui n’est pas recommandé doit tout d’abord s’assurer que ni sa
sécurité et ni la sécurité du véhicule ne sera remise en cause par la méthode d’entretien qu’il/elle sélectionne.

Deux types d’en-tête sont utilisées dans ce manuel pour attirer votre attention.

1. AVERTISSEMENT - Ce symbole est utilisé lorsqu’une procédure de fonctionnement, pratique, etc., qui, si elle n’est pas
observée correctement, risque d’entraîner des blessures corporelles voire la mort. Recherche ce symbole pour indiquer les
précautions de sécurité importantes. Il signifie - ATTENTION! SOYEZ PRUDENT! VOTRE SECURITE EST EN JEU!

2. Note - Ce symbole est utilisé lorsqu’une procédure de fonctionnemnet, méthode, etc., qui, si elle n’est pas observée strictement,
risque d’entraîner des dommages ou une destruction de l’équipement.

AVERTISSEMENT
N’utilisez jamais des pièces qui sont altérées, modifiées ou affaiblies lors du fonctionnement. Ceci peut sérieusement
remettre en cause l’intégrité de la machine et provoquer des dommages de l’équipement ou de graves blessures
corporelles.
