SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Do not look into the light beam of timing lights. Internal eye burns may be the result. The pain usually starts in a
day or two.
• Do not touch rotating engine parts that appear stopped or slowed under the strobe light fl ashes.
• Always wear safety glasses, or other eye protection when testing vehicles. Be extra careful near batteries and
moving parts.
• Battery gas is highly explosive.
a. If a battery explodes, fl ush the acid away from person's skin with generous amounts of water. Follow up with a
neutralizing solution of baking soda and then more water. Med i cal treatment for acid burns may be necessary.
Treat clothing, vehicle parts, and equipment similarly. Any acid traces inside equipment must be re moved by
generous rinsing. Dry off equipment afterwards 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 dis con nect ed. Con-
tact 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 fl ames near batteries.
• Before working on a vehicle, set the brakes and block the wheels. Beware of au to mat ic parking brake re leas es.
• Keep your work area well ventilated and free of exhaust. Engine exhaust contains deadly poisons.
• Avoid electrical shocks caused by getting too close to live ignition wires or touching the coil TACH ter mi nal. A
person's reaction near a running engine can be more damaging than the shock.
• Keep spark producing devices at least 0.5m (18") above the fl oor to reduce the hazard of igniting gasoline vapor.
• Do not let test leads wind up in a fan or pulley. Route leads away.
• Remove fi nger rings and metal wristbands. They can short terminals and become very hot from electric current.
