You are undoubtedly eager to get started with your project, but take a little more time to insure
that your safety is not in jeopardy. A moment’s lack of attention can result in an accident, as
can failure to observe some simple safety precautions. The possibility of an accident always
exists, and the following points should not be considered a comprehensive list of all of the
dangers. They are only intended to make you aware of the risks and to encourage you to take a
safety conscious approach to all of the work that you will be doing on your vehicle.
Never rely solely on a jack when working
under a vehicle. Always use an approved set
of jackstands to support the vehicle and
place them under the recommended lift points.
When jacking a vehicle, make sure it is on a level surface,
preferably concrete or asphalt. The
transmission should be in “PARK” or “FIRST”,
the parking brake engaged and the wheels blocked.
Never start the car without first verifying that
the transmission is in neutral and
the parking brake is set.
Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is hot.
Always wear eye protection when using
power tools such as drills, saws, grinders, etc.,
or when working under a vehicle.
Never smoke, use an open flame, or have
spark-producing items around gasoline or
flammable solvents. Always have a
fire extinguisher rated for chemical and electrical
fires handy when working on motor vehicles.
Run engines only in well ventilated areas.
Carbon monoxide, gasoline, and solvent
vapors are colorless and sometimes
odorless. These can asphyxiate or
explode without warning.
Always disconnect at least the negative (-) or
ground terminal of the battery when
doing any electrical, fuel system,
or underdash work.
