Cleaning/Inspection.
•
Drycleaning solvent P-D-680 is toxic and flammable. Wear protective goggles, face mask, and
gloves and use only in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothes and
don't breathe vapor. Do not use near open flame or excessive heat. The flash point for type I
drycleaning solvent is 100°F (38°C) and for type II is 140°F (60°C). If you become dizzy while
using cleaning solvent, get fresh air immediately and get medical aid. If contact with eyes is
made, flush eyes with water and get medical aid immediately.
•
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.

irritate exposed skin if solvents contact skin. In cold weather, contact of exposed skin with
cleaning solvents can cause frostbite.
