IMPORTANT: MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
When working on or around a vehicle, the following
general precautions should be observed:
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface, apply the
parking brakes, and always block the wheels.
2. Stop the engine when working around the vehicle.
3. Drain the air pressure from all reservoirs before
beginning ANY work on the vehicle.
4. Following the vehicle manufacturer’s recom-
mended procedures, deactivate the electrical
system in a manner that removes all electrical
power from the vehicle.
5. When working in the engine compartment the en-
gine should be shut off. Where circumstances
require that the engine be in operation, EXTREME
CAUTION should be used to prevent personal in-
jury resulting from contact with moving, rotating,
leaking, heated, or electrically charged com-
ponents.
6. Never connect or disconnect a hose or line con-
taining pressure; it may whip. Never remove a
component or plug unless you are certain all sys-
tem pressure has been depleted.
7. Never exceed recommended pressures and always
wear safety glasses.
8. Do not attempt to install, remove, disassemble, or
assemble a component until you have read and
thoroughly understand the recommended proce-
dures. Use only the proper tools and observe all
precautions pertaining to use of those tools.
9. Use only genuine Bendix replacement parts, com-
ponents, and kits. Replacement hardware, tubing,
hose, fittings, etc. should be of equivalent size, type,
and strength as original equipment and be designed
specifically for such applications and systems.
10. Components with stripped threads or damaged
parts should be replaced rather than repaired. Re-
pairs requiring machining or welding should not
be attempted unless specifically approved and
stated by the vehicle or component manufacturer.
11. Prior to returning the vehicle to service, make cer-
tain all components and systems are restored to
their proper operating condition.
