GETTING
STARTED
Most
of
the
necessary
maintenance
and
minor
repair
that
an
automobile
will
need
canbe
done
with
ordinary
tools,
evenby
owners
with
little
or
no
experience
in
car
repair
.
Below
is
some
important
information
on
how
to
work
safely,
a
discussion
of
what
tools
will
be
needed
and
how
to
use
them
.
Although
an
automobile
presents
many
hazards,
common
sense
and
good
equipment
can
helo
ensure
safety
.
Many
acci-
dents
happen
because
of
carelessness
.
Pay
attention
and
stick
to
these
few
important
safety
rules
.

.
Use
a
portable
safety
light
for

lightis
best
be-
cause
it
gives

less
heat
.
If
using
a
light
with
anormal
incandescent
butb,
use
rough

ADVICE
FORTHE
BEGINNER
The
tips
in
the
paragraphs
that
follow
are
general
advice
to
help
any
do-it-yourself
BMW
owner
perform
repairs
and
main-
tenance
tasks
more
easily
and
more
professionally
.
Planning
Ahead
Cleanliness
Keeping
things
organized,
neat,
and
clean
is
essential
to
do-
ing
a
good
job
.
When
working
under
the
hood,
fender
covers
will
protect
the
finish
from
scratches
and
other
damage
.
Make
sure
the
car
is
relatively
clean
so
thatdi
rt
under
the
cover
does
not
scratch
the
finish
.
Any
repair
job
will
be
less
troublesome
if
the
parts
are
clean
.
For
cleaning
old
parts,
there
are
many
solvents
and
parts
cleaners
commercially
available
.
For
cleaning
parts
priorto
assembly,
commercially
available
aerosol
cans
of
parts
cleaner
or
brake
cleaner
are
handy
to
use,
and
the
cleaner
will
evaporate
completely
.
WARNING
-
Virtually
all
solvents
used
for
cleaning
parts
are
highly
flammable,
especially
in
aerosol
form
.
Use
wíth
extreme
care
.
Do
not
smoke
.
Do
not
use
these
products
near
any
source
of
heat,
sparksor
flame
.
Let
any
solvent
orcleaning
product
dry
completely
.
Low-
pressure,
dry
compressed
air
is
helpful
if
available
.
Also,
use
only
lint-free
rags
for
cleaning
and
drying
.
