High Pressure Air, Lubrication and Oil
Test Equipment
See alsoLubricants and Greases.
Always keep high-pressure equipment in good
condition, and regularly maintained, particularly at
joints and unions.
Never direct a high-pressure nozzle, for example
diesel injector, at the skin as the fluid may
penetrate to the underlying tissue, and cause
serious injury.

Legal Aspects
There are many laws and regulations relating to
health and safety in the use and disposal of
materials and equipment in a workshop.
For a safe working environment and to avoid
environmental pollution, workshops should be
familiar, in detail, with the many health and safety
laws and regulations within their country, published
by both national and local authorities.
Lubricants and Greases
Avoid all prolonged and repeated contact with
mineral oils. All lubricants and greases may be
irritating to the eyes and skin.
Transmission Fluids
Safety instructions
Certain Transmission and Power Steering fluids
supplied to Ford may contain additives which have
the potential to cause skin disease (dermatitis) to
exposed persons. The dermatitis may be irritant
or allergic in nature. Risks are higher where
prolonged or repeated skin contact with a fluid may
occur. These fluids are used for vehicle initial fill
and service purposes. This sub-section is to: • Inform Service personnel who may come into
contact with these vehicle fluids (hazard
communication).
• Summarise appropriate workplace control measures and personal protective equipment
requirements.
• Draw attention to the existence of Material Safety Datasheets (MSDS's) for the fluids
(available from Ford Customer Service Division).
These MSDS's contain detailed information on
hazards and appropriate controls.
Control measures
Workplace risk assessments made under national
chemical control regulations should identify
operations involving the fluids as potentially
hazardous and specify workplace control and
worker awareness measures. In such
circumstances, the relevant Material Safety
Datasheet (see the details specified below) which
specifies hazards and control measures in detail
should be made available for guidance.
Avoid unprotected skin contact with the fluids, and
in particular, avoid prolonged or repeated skin
contact. Work practices should be organised so as
to minimise the potential for skin contact. This may
include the use of drip trays, absorbents, correct
fluid handling equipment (funnels etc), and
workplace housekeeping measures such as the
cleaning of contaminated surfaces.
Personnel engaged in operations where skin
contact could occur (such as fluid draining or filling)
should wear impervious gloves made from nitrile
rubber, certified to a chemical protection standard,
e.g. Europe Standard EN374. This glove type is
widely available from reputable suppliers of gloves
for chemical protection [including the manufacturers
Ansell-Admont (Solvex Range), North Safety
products (North Nitrile Latex Gloves range), and
Marigold Industrial (Blue Nitrile range)]. If gloves
become torn or contaminated on the inside they
should be replaced. Eye protection with safety
glasses is appropriate. Use of an impervious apron
and arm protectors may be necessary if more
extensive exposure is possible. Use of skin barrier
creams suitable for work with mineral oil products
may offer some supplementary protection, but such
barrier creams should not be used in place of
protective clothing.
If accidental skin contact occurs with the fluids,
wash the area thoroughly with soap or skin
cleanser and water.

Road/Roller Testing
Road or roller testing may be carried out for various
reasons and a procedure detailing pre-test checks,
engine starting and stopping, pre-driving checks,
on-test checks and final checks to be completed
on completion of the test is given below.
Unless complete vehicle performance is being
checked, the full road test procedure need not be
carried out. Instead, those items particularly
relevant to the system(s) being checked can be
extracted.
Pre-Test Checks
WARNING: If the brake system hydraulic
fluid level is low, pedal travel is excessive
or a hydraulic leak is found, do not attempt
to road test the vehicle until the reason for
the low fluid level, excessive pedal travel
or hydraulic leak is found and rectified.
It is suggested that pre-test checks and functional
tests of those systems and circuits which affect the
safe and legal operations of the vehicle, such as
brakes, lights and steering, should always be
carried out before the road or roller test.
With the ignition switched off, check:
– the engine oil level.
– the engine coolant level.
– the tires, for correct pressure, compatible types and tread patterns, and wear within limits.
– that there is sufficient fuel in the tank to complete the test.
– all around the engine, transmission and under the vehicle for oil, coolant, hydraulic and fuel
leaks. Make a note of any apparent leaks and
wipe off the surrounding areas to make it easier
to identify the extent of the leak on completion
of the test.
Starting the Engine
NOTE: On initial drive away from cold and within
the first 1.5 km (1 mile), do not depress the
accelerator pedal beyond half travel until the
vehicle has attained a minimum speed of 25 km/h
(15 miles/h). Never operate at high engine speed
or with the accelerator pedal at full travel whilst the
engine is cold.
With the ignition switched off, check: – that the parking brake is applied.
– that the gear lever is in the neutral position.
– that all instrument gauges (except fuel gauge)
read zero.
With the ignition switched on, check:
– that the ignition controlled warning lamps are illuminated.
– that the engine temperature gauge registers a reading compatible with the engine temperature.
– that the fuel gauge registers a reading appropriate to the fuel level in the tank.
– the operation of the parking brake warning lamp and fluid level warning indicator.
Road or Roller Testing
CAUTION: If road testing, check the brake
operation while still traveling at low speed
before continuing with the test. If the
brakes pull to one side, or appear to be
otherwise faulty, do not continue with the
road test until the fault has been found and
rectified.
During the road or roller test, check:
– that the clutch pedal operation is not stiff or heavy.
– that the initial gear engagement is smooth and there is no evidence of clutch drag.
– that the parking brake control operates smoothly and releases quickly and completely.
– that the clutch takes up the drive smoothly, without slip or judder.
– that gear changing is smooth with no abnormal noises or vibrations from the transmission.
– the engine power output is satisfactory, full power is achieved, acceleration is smooth and
pedal operation is not stiff or heavy, and engine
speed returns to idle correctly.
– there is no excessive or abnormally colored smoke from the engine under normal driving,
heavy load or overrun conditions.
– that steering operation, including power steering (if equipped), is smooth, accurate, not
excessively heavy or with excessive free play
or vibration.
– that the steering does not pull to one side and self centers smoothly after cornering.

Air Conditioning (A/C) System Health and Safety Precautions
WARNINGS:
Only qualified technicians are allowed to
work on air conditioning (A/C) systems.
Air conditioning (A/C) system components
can become particularly hot or cold.
Make sure that the air conditioning (A/C)
system is at ambient temperature before
carrying out any repair.
When handling refrigerants, always wear
protective goggles and gloves made of
fluoroelastomer. Leather or fabric gloves
are not suitable.
SKIN CONTACT: If liquid refrigerant comes
into contact with the skin, it produces
severe frostbite. Immediately flush affected
areas with plenty of cold running water for
15 minutes. Seek medical attention.
EYE CONTACT: If refrigerant comes into
contact with the eyes, immediately flush
the eyes with plenty of running water for
15 minutes. Seek medical attention.
INHALED: Toxic gases generated when
refrigerant is heated are hazardous to
health. The gases have an irritating smell
and can cause lung damage. The
symptoms can continue for a long time
after having been in contact with the gases.
The gases can cause lung damage even if
the amount of gas in the air is too small to
smell.
Refrigerant is flammable and explosive.
Make sure that refrigerant bottles are not
exposed to temperatures greater than 45°C.
Make sure that the local regulations
regarding work on air conditioning (A/C)
systems are adhered to.
Make sure that refrigerant bottles are
closed properly.
Gaseous refrigerant has a higher density
than air. There is a danger of suffocation
when working close to the ground or in
workshop pits.
Provide adequate ventilation when
handling refrigerant.
Never release refrigerant into the
atmosphere.
Only use special tools, equipment and
lubricants that are approved for the type
of refrigerant being used.
Always follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for the correct servicing unit
operating procedure.
CAUTIONS:
Do not mix refrigerant oils for different
types of refrigerant.
Never mix different types of refrigerant or
equipment intended for them.
Only use refrigerant in gas form when
filling the system through the low-pressure
connection.
Only use refrigerant in liquid form when
filling the system through the
high-pressure connection.
Refrigerant attacks certain plastics. Only
use seals suitable for refrigerant.
If the air conditioning (A/C) compressor is
damaged, the fixed orifice tube can
become blocked with metal particles.
Any sort of blockage in the refrigerant
circuit will damage the air conditioning
(A/C) compressor irreparably.
If the air conditioning (A/C) system has
been opened for a period greater than 2
hours, a new receiver drier must be
installed and the evacuating time to be
increased by a minimum of 2 hours.
NOTE: New air conditioning (A/C) compressors
are delivered prefilled.
NOTE: Refrigerant oil in new air conditioning (A/C)
compressors can contain Teflon, visible as white
particles, which will not harm the system.
