ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
Be aware of the danger of fire when vehicle is operated over dry, combustible material.
When operating vehicle, be aware of environmental hazards such as steep slopes, overhanging
limbs, etc.
Battery Disposal
Lead-acid batteries are recyclable. Return whole scrap batteries to distributor, manufacturer or lead smelter for recycling.
For neutralized spills, place residue in acid-resistant containers with absorbent material, sand or earth and dispose of in
accordance with local, state and federal regulations for acid and lead compounds. Contact local and/or state environ-
mental officials regarding disposal information.
LIFTING THE VEHICLE
Some servicing operations may require the front wheels, the rear wheels, or the entire vehicle to be raised.
Use extreme care since the vehicle is extremely unstable during the lifting process.
Be sure the vehicle is on a firm and level surface.
Never get under a vehicle while it is supported by a jack.
Use jack stands and test the stability of the vehicle on the stands.
Place chocks in front and behind the wheels not being raised.
When lifting the vehicle, position the jacks and jack stands at the areas indicated only.
