1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

4.2 This guide is not meant to supersede manufacturers' directions and recommendations for the use of their specific products, or written directions from the architect or building owner. When manufacturers' directions are in conflict with this guide, follow their recommendations or consult with their technical staff for further direction.

4.3 Prior to undertaking a full-scale repair or cleaning procedure, the methods under consideration for repair, patching or cleaning should be tested on an area not easily visible or on sample stones.
