IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING
In any product, components will eventually fail to perform
properly as the result of normal use, age, wear or abuse.
It is virtually impossible to anticipate all possible compo
nent failures or the manner in which each component
may fail.
Be aware that a vehicle requiring repair indicates that the
vehicle is no longer functioning as designed and there
fore should be considered potentially hazardous. Use
extreme care when working on any vehicle. When diag
nosing, removing or replacing any components that are
not operating correctly, take the time to consider the
safety ramifications if the component should move unex
pectedly.
Some components are heavy, spring loaded, highly cor
rosive, explosive or may produce high amperage or
reach high temperatures. Gasoline, carbon monoxide,
battery acid and hydrogen gas could result in serious
bodily injury to the technician/mechanic and bystanders if
not treated with utmost caution. Be careful not to place
hands, face, feet or body in a location that could expose
them to injury should an unforeseen situation occur.
Always use the appropriate tools listed in the tool list and
wear approved safety equipment.

distribution or the center

vehicle unstable or prone to roll over which could
result in injury or death to the operator or passenger.
