INFORMATION

GENERAL FITTING REMINDERS

WORKSHOP SAFETY IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!

The suggestions, cautions and warnings in the
section are intended to serve as reminders for
trained and experienced mechanics. This manual
is not a course in automotive mechanics or
workshop safety.

Shop equipment, shop environment, and the use
and disposal of solvents, fluids, and chemicals
are subject to government regulations which are
intended to provide a level of safety. It is your
responsibility to know and comply with such
regulations.

PRECAUTIONS AGAINST DAMAGE

1. Always fit covers to protect fenders before

commencing work in engine compartment.

2. Cover seats and carpets, wear clean overalls

and wash hands or wear gloves before working
inside vehicle.

3. Avoid spilling hydraulic fluid or battery acid on

paint work. Wash off with water immediately if
this occurs. Use Polythene sheets to protect
carpets and seats.

4. Always use a recommended Service Tool, or a

satisfactory equivalent, where specified.

5. Protect temporarily exposed screw threads by

replacing nuts or fitting plastic caps.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. Whenever possible use a lift or pit when working

beneath vehicle, in preference to jacking. Chock
wheels as well as applying parking brake.

WARNING: Do not use a pit when
removing fuel system components.

2. Never rely on a jack alone to support vehicle.

Use axle stands carefully placed at jacking
points to provide rigid support.

3. Ensure that a suitable form of fire extinguisher is

conveniently located.

4. Check that any lifting equipment used has

adequate capacity and is fully serviceable.

5. Disconnect battery negative lead.

WARNING: Do not disconnect any pipes in
air conditioning refrigeration system,
unless trained and instructed to do so. A

refrigerant is used which can cause blindness if
allowed to contact eyes.

6. Ensure that adequate ventilation is provided

when volatile degreasing agents are being used.

7. Do not apply heat in an attempt to free stiff nuts

or fittings; as well as causing damage to
protective coatings, there is a risk of damage to
electronic equipment and brake linings from
stray heat.
