Maintenance Safety

• To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away from the battery and all fuel related parts.

• Never leave rags, towels, or other flammable objects under the hood.

► Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite them causing a fire.

• To clean parts, use a commercially available degreaser or parts cleaner, not gasoline.

• Wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with the battery or compressed air.

• Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, which is poisonous and can kill you.

► Only operate the engine if there is sufficient ventilation.

Vehicle Safety

• The vehicle must be in a stationary condition.

► Make sure your vehicle is parked on level ground, the parking brake is set, and the engine is off.

• Be aware that hot parts can burn you.

► Make sure to let the engine and exhaust system cool thoroughly before touching vehicle parts.

• Be aware that moving parts can injure you.
