repairs or service should have knowledge and experience in electrical and mechanical repair.
The appropriate instructions must be used when performing maintenance, service, or
accessory installation.
• If any problems are found during scheduled inspection or service, do not operate vehicle until
repairs are made. Failure to make necessary repairs could result in fire, property damage,
severe personal injury, or death.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry, such as rings, watches, chains, etc., when servicing
vehicle.
• Turn the key switch to the OFF position, remove the key, place the Forward/Reverse handle in
the NEUTRAL position and chock the wheels prior to servicing.
• Moving parts: Do not attempt to service vehicle while engine is running.
• Hot! Do not attempt to service hot engine or exhaust system. Failure to heed this warning
could result in severe burns.
• For vehicles with cargo beds, remove all cargo before raising the bed or servicing the vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with a prop rod, ensure that it is securely engaged. Do not close bed
until all persons are clear of cargo bed area. Keep hands clear of all crush areas. Do not drop
cargo bed; lower gently and keep entire body clear. Failure to heed this warning could result
in severe personal injury or death.
• Do not work on vehicle powertrain or under cargo bed when it is loaded.
• Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the closed (OFF) position (Figure 13).
• To help avoid unintentionally starting the vehicle:
- Disconnect battery cables, negative (–) cable first (Figure 1, Page 7).

• If wires are removed or replaced make sure wiring and wire harness are properly routed and
secured. Failure to properly route and secure wiring could result in vehicle malfunction,
property damage, personal injury, or death.
