As requested, we reviewed your brake service mmim! and agree that the
locations you have noted are appropriate for lnearticn of the asbestos
fiber cautions. We believe these csutlocm nhonld consist of language
similar to the following:
.
CAUTICSf:
Dust and dirt present on brain assemblies and drums say contain asbestos Tiber* that can represent a potential health hazard when mads airborne by iiniwg with com pressed air. Brake assemblies and drums should therefore be cleaned only with a vacuum cleaner suitable for use vith asbestos fibers, this type of vacuum Is available through the Rotunda Dealer Equipment Catalog. Dust and dirt from the vacuum should be disposed of in a Benner that prevents dust exposure.
Any
rv<rig done on brake linings or pads should be done
mt^ng properly exhaust ventilated equipment.
Further information on aabeet os fiber control can be obtained from the Federal Register May 28, 1975, Occupational Safety and Health Standards Section 1910,1000..
This project should also be coordinated with A. H. Updegrove, Supervisor, Rotunda Evaluation.. Hr. Updegrove'a personnel have been involved in unrketing a vacuum cleaner suitable for use on asbestos fiber laden material.
