Maintenance: Clean the bit after use. Remove debris from flutes. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
Training requirement: No specialised training required. Basic instruction on correct usage and safety procedures is recommended.
2. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Injury (debris): Do not rub. Rinse immediately with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes, holding eyelids open. Seek medical attention.
Cut Injury: Apply direct pressure to stop bleeding. Clean wound with clean water. Cover with sterile dressing. Seek medical attention if bleeding is profuse or the wound is deep.
Skin Contact (dust): Wash skin with soap and water. If irritation develops, seek medical attention.
Inhalation of Dust: Move a person to fresh air. If symptoms persist (coughing, difficulty breathing), seek medical attention.
3. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability: The bit itself is not flammable. Packaging may burn if exposed to fire.
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide (CO₂) for fires involving packaging.
Fire Response: In event of fire, evacuate the area and call emergency services. Use appropriate extinguishers.
