WARNING SUMMARY (cont)
WARNING
Rear trays of ammo rack could collapse when removed. To prevent injury, move ammo rack
from the front. Keep fingers away from spaces between trays on the back of ammo rack.
WARNING
Chemical agent resistant coating (CARC) paint contains isocyanate (HDI) which is highly
irritating to skin and respiratory system. High concentrations of HDI can cause itching and
reddening of skin, a burning sensation in throat and nose, and watering eyes. In extreme
concentrations, HDI can cause coughing, shortness of breath, pain during breathing, increased
sputum production, and chest tightness. The following precautions must be taken whenever
using CARC paint:
ALWAYS use air line respirators when using CARC paint unless air sampling
shows exposure to be below standards.
DO NOT let skin or eyes come in contact with CARC paint. Always wear protective
equipment (gloves, ventilation mask, goggles, etc.)
DO NOT use CARC paint without adequate ventilation.
NEVER weld or cut CARC-painted materials.
DO NOT grind or sand CARC-painted equipment without high-efficiency
air purifying respirators in use.
BE AWARE of CARC paint exposure symptoms, which can occur a few days after initial
exposure. Seek medical help immediately if symptoms are detected.
WARNING
Falling ramp could cause severe injuries. Keep personnel clear of ramp area.
