Technician Safety Information
Safety PrecautionsWARNING: Never run the engine with one wheel off the ground, for example, when changing a tire. The wheel(s) resting on the ground could cause the vehicle to move.
WARNING: The tire and wheel must always be correctly matched. It is very important to determine the size of each component before any assembly operations commence. Failure to follow these instructions can result in an explosive separation and result in personal injury.
WARNING: Aftermarket aerosol tire sealants are extremely flammable. Always question the customer to make sure these products have not been used.
WARNING: Aftermarket wheel assemblies may not be compatible with the vehicle. Use of incompatible wheel assemblies can result in equipment failure and possible injury. Use only approved wheel assemblies.
WARNING: Use only wheels and wheel nuts that have been designed for current year Ford vehicles. Aftermarket wheels or wheel nuts may not fit or function correctly, and can cause personal injury or damage to the vehicle.
WARNING: Always wear safety goggles or a face shield when performing any work with wheel and tire assemblies.
