People think that lead is poisonous. This is half true. It is only poisonous if lead is melted. The atmospheric evaporation pressure of lead material is higher than other metals. So it becomes more evaporated and more dangerous for human body when it is melted.

The operators must be careful about below rules;
*Don't drop water onto melted lead. Melted lead will explode.
*Use latex gloves. On it wear high heat resistant special gloves.
*Use mask to avoid breathing vapoured lead.
*Cover your hair. You can use hut, bandana or similar.
*Avoid breathing over melting pot or melted lead on the mold.
*Cover your skin to avoid melted lead touches and burnes.
*Give blood every six month to check the lead level in your body.

Note: Melted lead evaporates 4 times more than water. The atmosphere pressure of lead is very high. Avoid breathing lead particules. Lead as hard metal is not poisonous. But it is one of the most dense element. Even small piece of it is heavier than a standart metal, for example aluminum. Be careful by carrying.
