Safety glasses

Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc. from
getting in the eyes.
NOTICE


If you remove the air cleaner filter

Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear
due to dirt in the air.


If the brake fluid level is low or high

It is normal for the brake fluid level to go down slightly as the brake pads
wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refilling, it may indicate a serious problem.
