O-2. STANDARD SHOP PRACTICES
1. Protect painted surfaces of the body, and
avoid staining or tearing seats. When working
on fenders and seats, be sure to cover them
up with sheets.
2. Disconnect negative terminal connection of
the battery when working on any electrical
part or component. This is necessary for
avoiding electrical shocks and short-circuit-
ing, and is very simple to accomplish: merely
loosen wing nut on negative terminal and
separate cable from terminal post.
3. In raising front or rear car end off the floor
by jacking, be sure to put the jack against
differential portion of axle housing.
NOTE:
Don’t get on the car, get under it or service it in
this state.

4. To perform service with either front or rear
car end jacked up, be sure to place safety
stands under chassis frame so that body is
securely supported. Refer to below figures
for where to place safety stands. And then
check to ensure that chassis frame does not
slide on safety stands and the car is held
stable for safety’s sake.
WARNING:
Place chocks against both right and left
wheels on the ground from both front and
rear.
