What should I do when servicing vehicles?

March 20, 2012


Here are some safety tips for you to keep in mind when you are working are your vehicle


-Look
completely around and under vehicle and check for brake pedal pressure before moving the vehicle.

-Have all bystanders stay in a safe area until the driver has stopped the vehicle.

-Move vehicles at a low speed and in low gear – especially up and down ramps.

-Use a guide when moving the vehicle in reverse, near blind corners or narrow areas.

-Park on a level, hard surface to make repairs.

-Chock and block the wheels to prevent movement during servicing.

-Disconnect battery and discharge any capacitors before starting to work on vehicle.

-Secure the trunk and hood to prevent them from falling on you when you are working underneath them.

-Inspect a running engine with extreme caution. Avoid contact with fan blades and belts.

-Only do work or repairs on a cool engine. Hot metal and fluids will cause burns.

-Avoid working around hot equipment such as exhaust pipes and manifolds. If such work is absolutely necessary, cover the hot equipment with some insulating protection to prevent getting burned.

-Always wear eye protection when working on a vehicle or when using power tools.

-Store the keys in a secure place when the vehicle is not in use or not attended.
