Always use protective goggles where there is a
danger of pieces of metal, sparks from
grinding, acid or other chemicals being thrown
into your eyes. Your eyes are very sensitive,
injury can lead to loss of sight!
Store oil and fuel-soaked rags and fuel and
oil filters safely. In certain conditions oil-
soaked rags can spontaneously ignite. Used
fuel and oil filters are environmentally
dangerous waste and must be deposited at
an approved site for destruction together with
used lubricating oil, contaminated fuel, paint
remnants, solvent, degreasing agents and
waste from washing parts.
Avoid skin contact with oil. Long-term or
repeated contact with oil can remove the
natural oils from your skin. The result can be
irritation, dry skin, eczema and other skin
problems. Used oil is more dangerous to health
than new oil. Use protective gloves and avoid
using oil-soaked clothes and rags. Wash
regularly, especially before meals. Use the
correct barrier cream to prevent dry skin and to
make cleaning your skin easier.
Never allow a naked flame or electric sparks
near the batteries. Never smoke in proximity
to the batteries. The batteries give off
hydrogen gas during charging which when
mixed with air can form an explosive gas -
oxyhydrogen. This gas is easily ignited and
highly volatile. Incorrect connection of the
battery can cause a spark which is sufficient
to cause an explosion with resulting damage.
Do not disturb battery connections when
starting the engine (spark risk) and do not
lean over batteries.
Most chemicals used in products (engine and
transmission oils, glycol, petrol and diesel oil)
and workshop chemicals (solvents and paints)
are hazardous to health Read the instructions
on the product packaging carefully! Always fol-
low safety instructions (using breathing appara-
tus, protective goggles and gloves for exam-
ple). Ensure that other personnel are not
unwittingly exposed to hazardous substances
(by breathing them in for example). Ensure that
ventilation is good. Handle used and excess
chemicals according to instructions.
Never mix up the positive and negative
battery terminals when installing. Incorrect
installation can result in serious damage to
electrical equipment. Refer to wiring
diagrams.
Always use protective goggles when
charging and handling batteries. The battery
electrolyte contains extremely corrosive
sulfuric acid. If this comes into contact with
the skin, wash immediately with soap and
plenty of water. If battery acid comes into
contact with the eyes, immediately flush with
copious amounts of water and obtain
medical assistance.
Be extremely careful when tracing leaks in the
fuel system and testing fuel injection nozzles.
Use protective goggles! The jet ejected from a
fuel injection nozzle is under very high pres-
sure, it can penetrate body tissue and cause
serious injury There is a danger of blood
poisoning.
All fuels and many chemicals are inflammable.
Ensure that a naked flame or sparks cannot ig-
nite fuel or chemicals. Combined with air in cer-
tain ratios, petrol, some solvents and hydrogen
from batteries are easily inflammable and
explosive. Smoking is prohibited! Ensure that
ventilation is good and that the necessary
safety precautions have been taken before
carrying out welding or grinding work. Always
have a fire extinguisher to hand in the
workplace.
Turn off the engine and turn off power at
main switch(es) before carrying out work on
the electrical system.
Clutch adjustments must be carried out with
the engine turned off.
