SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
DURING MAINTENANCE
When performing maintenance,
follow all safety instructions con-
tained in the manufacturer’s opera-
tion and service manuals, as well as
the following safety procedures:
l
Properly immobilize PTV before
beginning any maintenance to
avoid any unexpected vehicle
movement.
l
Properly block chassis before
working underneath PTV to
avoid any unexpected vehicle
movement.
l
When working on the fuel system
or the battery, do not smoke, or
allow any sparks or open flames
near the vehicle, to avoid any fires
or explosions.
l
Use only properly insulated tools
when working around batteries to
avoid electrical shock or damage
to the electrical system.
l
Maintain all safety devices includ-
ing brakes, steering mechanisms,
warning devices and governors, in
a safe operating condition. Do not
modify these safety devices as
supplied by the manufacturer.

After each maintenance or repair,
the car must be driven by a
qualified, trained and authorized
person – in an area free of pedes-
trian traffic – to ensure proper
operation and adjustment.

Record all maintenance performed
in a maintenance record log by
date, name of person performing
maintenance and type of mainte-
nance. Periodically inspect mainte-
nance log to ensure accurate and
complete entries.

to assist in identifying non-periodic
maintenance needs for specific
PTVs.

nameplates, warnings and
instructions provided by the
