Fire risk

However, beware of the flash point with an oil of viscosity class ISO VG 10. When machining steel or titanium, the risk of smoke is high, so you have to be careful about fires. If the machining operations are more about drilling small holes, there is no problem. In case of larger machining operations, the viscosity (ISO VG 15 / VG 22) should be reviewed.
