be performed.
•Using the product for work other than that for which it is intended can be dangerous.
•The brass parts of this product contain lead probably causing reproductive harm.
•Persons with pacemakers should consult their doctor before use. Electromagnetic fields in the
immediate vicinity of a pacemaker can lead to interference or failure of the pacemaker.
•Use caution when near the coil, spark plug leads, or distributor of a running engine. The engine
should be switched off while adjusting the distributor.
•This product is not a toy. Always keep it out of children’s reach.
Work area safety
•Keep children and bystanders away during operation. Distractions can lead to loss of control of
the device.
•Keep your working area clean and well illuminated. Messy or dark areas can increase the risk
of accidents.
Personal safety
Wear ANSI-approved safety glasses, NOSE-approved dust mask/respirator, and work gloves during
use and maintenance.
Be attentive and go about your work with common sense. Do not use the device when being tired or
under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medicine.
Do not stoop down too far. Always ensure a safe stand and keep your balance. This will allow a better
control of the device in unforeseen situations.
Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing, and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery, or long hair might get caught by moving parts.
Carbon monoxide hazards
DANGER! Operating an engine indoors CAN KILL YOU IN A FEW MINUTES. Engine exhaust
contains carbon monoxide, a poison that can neither be seen nor smelled. NEVER use in a house or
garage, EVEN IF doors and windows are open. Only use the motor outdoors and away from windows,
doors, and ventilation openings.

8. Start the vehicle and let it come to normal operating temperature. If necessary, ask an assistant
to maintain the correct speed indicated in the table.
9. Compare the reading on the meter with the numbers in the table. If the actual reading is lower
or higher than the values given in the table, have the engine serviced by a qualified technician.
10. Switch off the vehicle and let it cool down before removing the meter.
11. Replace the oil pressure/temperature sensor, top up oil if necessary, and dispose of and recycle
spilled oil in accordance with local and state laws and regulations.
12. Clean the tool, then store it in a room out of children’s reach.
Maintaining and repairing
