2.8 TIRE SAFETY
• Failure to follow procedure when
mounting a tire on a wheel or rim
can produce an explosion and may
result in serious injury or death.
• Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you
have the proper equipment and experience to
do the job.
• Have a qualified tire dealer or repair service
perform required tire maintenance.
• When replacing worn tires, make sure they
meet the original tire specifications. Never
undersize.
• Reference the tire side wall for information on
the maximum cold tire pressure (PSI). Keep
the tires inflated to this setting.
2.9 BATTERY SAFETY
• Keep all sparks and flames away from
batteries, as gas given off by electrolyte is
explosive.
• Avoid contact with battery electrolyte: wash
off any spilled electrolyte immediately.
• Wear safety glasses when working
near batteries.
• Do not tip batteries more than 45 degrees, to
avoid electrolyte loss.
• To avoid injury from spark or short circuit,
disconnect battery ground cable before
servicing any part of electrical system.
• Boosting the engine through the battery, or
recharging the battery, may cause a short in
the electrical system.
• Before using the battery, after it has been in
storage, be sure it has the optimal charge.
