Eye contact: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Eyelids
should be held away from the eyeball to ensure thorough rinsing. Check for and remove any
contact lenses. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.

Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting. Drink plenty of water. If symptoms persist, call a physician.
Protection of first-aiders: No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Remove all
sources of ignition. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, take
precautions to protect themselves and prevent spread of contamination. Wear personal protective
clothing (see section 8).
See Section 11 for more detailed information on health effects and symptoms.
Most Important
Symptoms and Effects: Personnel with pre-existing skin disorders should avoid contact with this product. Under normal use
conditions, no adverse effects to health are known.
Inhalation: Not expected to be harmful if inhaled. Contains petroleum-based mineral oil. May cause
respiratory irritation or other pulmonary effects following prolonged or repeated inhalation of oil
mist at airborne levels above the recommended oil mist exposure limit. Symptoms of respiratory
irritation may include coughing and difficult breathing.
Unsuitable Media: CAUTION: Use of water spray when fighting fire may be inefficient.
Specific Hazards Arising from
the Chemical: Keep product and empty container away from heat and sources of ignition as product will
burn. Contact with strong oxidizers may cause fire. In the event of fire, cool tanks with
water spray. Fire residues and contaminated fire extinguishing water must be contained,
prevented from being discharged to any waterway, sewer or drain and disposed of in
accordance with local regulations.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Combustion products may include the following: Carbon dioxide (CO2) Carbon
monoxide (CO), and Nitrogen oxides.
Protection of Fire Fighters: Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if
there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable
training. As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand,
MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
For non-emergency personnel: No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable training.
Evacuate surrounding areas. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from
entering. ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in
immediate area). Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Put on appropriate
personal protective equipment. Floors may be slippery; use care to avoid falling.
For emergency responders: If specialized clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any information
in Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials. Ensure adequate ventilation. Keep
people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Pay attention to flashback. Take precautionary
measures against static discharges. All equipment used when handling the product must
be grounded. See also the information in "For non-emergency personnel".
Environmental precautions: Avoid dispersal of spilled material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air). See Section 12 for ecological information.
Small Spills: Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Absorb with an inert material and place in
an appropriate waste disposal container. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
Large Spills: Stop leak if without risk. Move containers from spill area. Prevent entry into sewers, water courses,
basements or confined areas. Contain and collect spillage with non- combustible, absorbent material
e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to
local regulations. Dispose of via a licensed waste disposal contractor.
NOTE: If RQ (Reportable Quantity) is exceeded or if spills enter a body of water, report immediately to the USEPA’s National
Response Center at (800) 424-8802. Check with your local and state regulators regarding their reporting requirements.
Protective measures: Eye protection and face shield should be used if material is used under conditions that
increase the chances of splattering. Put on appropriate personal protective equipment
(see Section 8). Keep out of reach of children.
Advice on general
occupational hygiene: Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Eating, drinking and smoking should be
prohibited in areas where this material is handled, stored and processed. Wash
thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment
before entering eating areas.
See also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene measures.
Conditions for safe storage,
Including any incompatibilities: Store in accordance with local regulations. Store in original container protected from
direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials,
strong oxidizing agents (see Section 10) and food and drink. Keep away from heat,
sparks, flame and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors and static
electricity). Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Containers that
have been opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Use
appropriate containment to avoid environmental contamination. Avoid contaminating
soil or releases into sewage or drainage systems and bodies of water.
Bulk material handling: Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition
when handling this material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be
necessary but may not, by themselves, be sufficient.
Appropriate engineering controls: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control worker exposure to airborne
contaminants. Emergency shower and eyewash station.
Environmental exposure controls: Emissions from ventilation or work process equipment should be checked to ensure
they comply with the requirements of environmental protection legislation. In some
cases, fume scrubbers, filters or engineering modifications to the process
equipment will be necessary to reduce emissions to acceptable levels.
Individual protection measures
Hygiene measures: Wash hands, forearms and face thoroughly after handling chemical products,
before eating, smoking and using the lavatory and at the end of the working
period. Appropriate techniques should be used to remove potentially
contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before reusing.
Eye/Face Protection: Wear safety glasses with side shields. A face shield may be necessary under
some conditions.
Skin and Body Protection
Hand protection: Wear protective gloves if prolonged or repeated contact is likely. Wear
chemical resistant gloves. Recommended: Nitrile gloves. Consult your supervisor
or Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for special handling instructions.
Body protection: No protective equipment is needed under normal use conditions. For non-routine
tasks, personal protection equipment for the body should be selected based on the
task being performed and the risks involved.
Other skin protection: Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be
selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved.

PURE GUARD XL 6000 AW HYDRAULIC OIL – ALL GRADES July 28, 2020
Respiratory protection: No respiratory protection is normally required. If user operation generates an oil
mist, determine if airborne concentrations are below the occupational exposure limit
for mineral oil mist. If not, wear an approved respirator that provides adequate
protection from measured concentrations of this material. The correct choice of
respiratory protection depends upon the chemicals being handled, the conditions of
work and use, and the condition of the respiratory equipment. For air-purifying
respirators use a particulate cartridge. Use a positive pressure air-supplying
respirator in circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not provide
adequate protection.
