Lenox® Saw Blades
Section 8. Exposure controls/personal protection
Hand protection
Use a properly fitted, particulate filter respirator complying with an approved standard if
a risk assessment indicates this is necessary. Respirator selection must be based on
known or anticipated exposure levels, the hazards of the product and the safe working
limits of the selected respirator. NIOSH approved respiratorys with P-100 filters should
be worn when the potential for exposure to metal particulates is anticipated to be in the
range of or above respective occupational exposure limits.
Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be
worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk assessment indicates this is
necessary. Considering the parameters specified by the glove manufacturer, check
during use that the gloves are still retaining their protective properties. It should be
noted that the time to breakthrough for any glove material may be different for different
glove manufacturers. In the case of mixtures, consisting of several substances, the
protection time of the gloves cannot be accurately estimated. Use strong, cut-resistant
gloves suitable for handling metals.
Safety eyewear complying with an approved standard should be used when a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary to avoid exposure to liquid splashes, mists,
gases or dusts. If contact is possible, the following protection should be worn, unless
the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection: chemical splash goggles. ,
ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection needs to be worn when the potential for eye
contact with saw blades, dusts, or fumes exists. At a minimum, side shields on ANSI
Z87 safety spectacles must be worn.
