Warning:
This product contains refractory ceramic fibers (RCF). RCF has been classified
as a possible human carcinogen. After this product is fired, RCF may, when
exposed to extremely high temperature (>1800F), change into a known human
carcinogen. When disturbed as a result of servicing or repair, RCF becomes
airborne and, if inhaled, may be hazardous to your health.

Precautionary Measures:
Do not remove or replace previously fired RCF (combustion chamber insulation,
target walls, canopy gasket, flue cover gasket, etc.) or attempt any service or
