* If the engine must be running to do some work, make sure the area is well ventilated. Never run the engine in an enclosed area.
* The exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can loss of consciousness and may lead to death.
* Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditions and keep out of children.
* Work in a well ventilated area, keep cigarettes, flames or sparks away from the area or where gasoline is stored.
* Engine and exhaust system parts become very hot and remain hot for some time after the engine is run.
* Wear insulated gloves or wait until the engine and exhaust system have cooled before handling these parts.
* The battery gives off explosive gases, keep sparks,flames and cigarettes away. Provide adequate ventilation for charging.
* Some electrical components may be damaged if terminals or connectors are connected or disconnected while the ignition switch is “ON”.
* Route all electrical wire/harness and cables. Keep them away from sharp edges and area where they might be pinched between moving parts.
* Always replace gaskets, O-rings, circlips and cotter pins with newones.
* When tightening nuts and bolts, start first with larger or centre ones. Tighten these to the specified torque using a criss-cross pattern.
* Use only genuine branded parts and recommend lubricants.Use specified special and common tools only.
* when engine and final drive components are disassembled and inspected, coat the mating surface with a lubricant to prevent corrosion.
* After assembling components, use the proper assembly lubricants. Check every part for proper installation, movement and operation.
* Always ensure mutual safety when working with a partner.These are all the must need tips.
*Use special tools wherever applicable. Special tools are designed to dismantle or assemble a specific part or assemblies without damage.
* clean the outside of apart or assembly before removing it from the motorcycle or opening its cover for service.
* Dirt which has accumulated on the outside, may fall into the engine or brake system and cause damage. Clean parts with a high flash point solvent and dry it with compressed air.
* Never bend or distort control cables. This will lead to stiff operation and premature cable failure.
* Beware of parts containing O-rings or oil seals, since these are adversely affected by most of the cleaning solvents.
* Loosening a part with multiple fasteners should be done from the outside to inside in a criss-cross pattern, loosening the small fasteners first.
* Care should be taken to note the position of the unidirectional parts while dismantling the engine.
* Always replace gaskets, O-rings, oil seals, metal sealing washers, circlip and cotter pins while re assembling the engine.
* It is important to apply recommended lubricant while assembling the engine parts to ensure better bedding in and preventing rapid wear out.
* New oil seals to be installed with multi purpose grease packed into the cavity . When installing seals always check that the shaft over which the seal fits is smooth and free of burrs, which could damage the seal.
* Old gasket and sealant material should be completely removed before re-assembly.
* Fuel/ vacuum should be installed so that end is bottomed into its fitting which would ensure adequate area for the hose clip to grip the hose beneath the flared end of the fitting.
