PVC cement and primer can produce vapors
that can be hazardous to your health. Use PVC
cement to join pipes only in a well ventilated area
where vapors cannot accumulate.
Pipe dope should NEVER be used on plastic
threads. Pipe dope will severely weaken the plas-
tic, causing leakage and may cause the plastic to
fracture. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
