-Read, understand, and follow the instructions and recommendations described in the operating and maintenance manuals for tools and equipment you use.

-Lock out equipment by removing the ignition key and by disconnecting the battery cables.

-Always disable the electrical system by disconnecting a battery cable or removing fuses for a circuit when working on the electrical system (e.g., starter motor, radio, wiring, ignition, etc.)
