• Always wear eye protection when testing vehicles. Be extra careful near batteries and moving parts. Do not lay tools
on a battery.
• Battery gas is highly explosive.
a. If a battery explodes flush the acid away from persons skin with generous amounts of water. Follow up with a
neutralizing solution of baking soda and then more water.
Treat clothing, vehicle parts, and equipment similarly. Any acid traces inside equipment must be removed by
generous rinsing. Dry equipment and place in a warm 50°C (120°F) oven until thoroughly dry.
b. Never use a wrench on the ungrounded battery terminal until the grounded one has been disconnected. Contact
between the vehicle body metal and the hot terminal can cause sparks to ignite gas or even weld tools into a
battery short circuit.
c. Keep the space around a battery well ventilated.
d. Do not make sparks or allow flames near batteries.
• Before working on a vehicle set the brakes and block the wheels. Beware of automatic parking brake releases.
• Keep your work area well ventilated and free of exhaust. Engine exhaust contains deadly poisons. Treat Gas Detector
exhaust and drain hoses the same as the vehicle tailpipe. Both give off deadly exhaust fumes.
• Avoid electrical shocks caused by getting close to live ignition wires or touching the coil TACH terminal. A person’s
reaction near a live engine can be more damaging than the shock.
• Keep spark producing devices at least 0.5m (18”) above the floor to reduce the hazard of igniting gasoline vapor.
• Do not let test leads wind up in a moving fan or pulley. Route leads away.
• Remove finger rings and metal wrist bands. They can short terminals and become very hot from electric current.
