Caution: You can be injured and the vehicle could be damaged
if you try to do service work on a vehicle without knowing enough about it.
• Be sure you have sufficient knowledge, experience, the proper replacement
parts, and tools before attempting any vehicle maintenance task. • Be sure to wait until the engine and any attaching parts have sufficiently
cooled before tilting the cab to service the vehicle. • Be sure to use the proper nuts, bolts, and other fasteners. English and
metric fasteners can be easily confused. If the wrong fasteners are used,
parts can later break or fall off. You could be hurt.
If you want to do some of your own service work, you will want to use the proper service manual. It tells you much more about how to service your vehicle than this manual can.
You should keep a record with all parts receipts and list the mileage and the date of any service work you perform. See Part D: Maintenance Record .
