Saab Original Service Programme EU

Saab Original Service Programme EU


This service programme is designed for the operating conditions prevailing in Europe and comparable conditions elsewhere.

The owner's Service Card is marked with a code next to the card's part number. If the code is EU, this service programme should be applied.

Warning

Lengthy and repeated contact with mineral oil removes the natural oils from your skin, drying it out and causing irritation. If oil has been swallowed, do not provoke vomiting. Call a doctor.


Observe the following safety rules:


• Avoid lengthy and repeated contact with oil, grease, etc. and especially waste oil.

• Wear protective clothing, including impermeable gloves, if possible.

• Do not put oily rags in your pockets.

• Do not wear clothes that have been soiled by oil, especially items of underwear. Clothes must be washed at regular intervals.

• Do not wear oily shoes.

• Clean open sores immediately and cover them with an adhesive bandage, sticking plaster, etc.

• Use barrier cream, part No. 30 04 397. Apply it to your exposed skin before each working period so that it will be easier for you to wash oil and grease off afterwards.

• Remove oil from your face and hands, etc. by washing them thoroughly with soap and water (special skin cleansers and a nailbrush will help). Preparations containing lanolin will restore the skin's natural moisture.

• Do not use petrol, paraffin, diesel oil, thinner or solvents to remove oil from any part of your body.

• If you notice any changes in your skin, consult a doctor without delay.

• If possible, clean the parts before starting work.

• If there is a danger of oil getting into your eyes, wear protective goggles, a visor or a face mask. Eye-washing equipment must also be readily available.
