At work with brake liquid it is necessary to mean the following:

   •  Brake liquid is aggressive. Therefore it is not necessary to allow it contact to paint and varnish coverings if it after all got on a covering, it is necessary to wipe a surface and to wash out a strong stream of water.

   •  Brake liquid is hygroscopic, i.e. it sucks in moisture from air. Therefore brake liquid should be stored in the closed capacities.
