SUBJECT: Recommended Work Practices
.. r.-i
It Is imperative that R/M promptly provide clear instructions oa the safe handling of asbestos containing friction materials, reinforced plastics and molding compounds to all customers in all trade classes. The instructions must be issued in a manner most likely to reach the worker handling the product.
Commencing on or before October 1, 1975, every box containing auto motive, bus, truck and industrial brake lining sets and clutch facings must contain a card carrying the text shown below.
Tags may be used for roll lining. The instructions must "also be '
included with asbestos containing friction materials, reinforced
plastics and molding compounds shipped in bulk. In such cases, '
the card on which the instructions are printed*must be of sufficieut-
cize to be readily observed by the worker opening the shipping
container. If preferred, the instructions may be stenciled on the
shipping container if they are clearly visible to the worker on the
receiving end.
*
Remember: The objective is to caution the worker handling the material
to use safe work practices.

These instructior.il are in addition to the caution label required by OSUA regulations- Thi3 label may be changed by the Revised Asbestos Standard scheduled to be published by September 30th.
You may'wish to have these instructions printed on the set buxes and
, other containers to reduce cost. However, because of the impending
change in the Asbestos Standard, rearrangement of box design should
be held up until OSHA requirements are known.
-
As we have discussed, Walt Kissel and Joe Glennon will coordinate
the design of instruction cards for their needs with respect ,:o size
and type of printing, etc.
\
Instruction cards for use in set boxes can be identical for Manu ilia,
Stratford and Peterborough. Instruction cards for bulk shipments
from Manheim and Stratford should be suitable for Craufordsyille i nd
Peterborough, as well.
