Avoid electrical sparking and its
consequences by the following
routines:
• Use protective goggles.
• Ensure that the fuel filler cap is mounted tightly
and no flammable substances are stored in an
open vessel.

fuel.
• Disconnect the chassis cable from the battery first
and reconnect it last.
• Do not make a bridge short circuit across the
starter relay to run the starter.
