The recommendations and suggestions contained in this manual are made to assist the dealer in improving his dealership parts
and/or service department operations. These recommendations and suggestions do not supersede or override the provisions of
the Warranty and Policy Manual, and in any cases where there may be a conflict, the provisions of the Warranty and Policy Manual
shall govern.
The descriptions, testing procedures, and specifications in this handbook were in effect at the time the handbook was
approved for printing. Ford Motor Company reserves the right to discontinue models at any time, or change specifications,
design, or testing procedures without notice and without incurring obligation. Any reference to brand names in this manual
is intended merely as an example of the types of tools, lubricants, materials, etc. recommended for use. Equivalents, if

DANGER: Exposure to potentially hazardous components may occur if dusts are created during repair of friction components, such as brake pads and clutch discs. Exposure to excessive amounts of dust may be a potential cancer and lung disease
hazard. Exposure may also cause irritation to skin, eyes, and respiratory tract, may cause allergic reactions, and/or may lead to other
chronic health effects.
Do not breathe dust. Do not use compressed air to blow dust from storage containers or friction components. A high-efficiency
(HEPA) vacuum cleaner should be used carefully to remove dust. Adherent dust should be removed with a damp rag.
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If irritation persists, seek medical attention or advice.
If dust gets in eyes, irrigate under eyelids with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
