Engine Oil: Service Precautions

WARNING:
^ Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result in the removal of natural fats from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and

dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.

^ Care should be taken, therefore, when changing engine oil, to minimize the frequency and length of time your skin is exposed to used engine

oil. Protective clothing and gloves that cannot be penetrated by oil should be worn. Wash your skin thoroughly with soap and water, or use
water-less hand cleaner, to remove any used engine oil. Do not use gasoline, thinners, or solvents.
