Work Practice Do's for Home Mechanics to Follow. It is recommended that you:

Use pre-ground, ready-to-install parts.

If a brake or clutch lining must be drilled, grooved, cut, beveled, or lathe-turned, use low speeds to keep down the amount of dust created.

Use machinery with a local exhaust dust collection system equipped with HEPA filtration to prevent dust exposures and work area contamination.

Change into clean clothes before going inside the home and wash soiled clothes separately.

Minimize exposure to others by keeping bystanders, as well as food and drinks, away from the work area.
