DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Health and Safety Precautions
General
Appropriate repair methods and their correct
implementation are very important for both vehicle
operating safety and personal safety.
WARNING: There is danger of injury
through:
• High voltage when electrical welding.
– Do not perform welding work in a damp
environment or on a wet substrate. Use
suitable insulation underneath.
• Flammable substances in the welding area.
– Remove flammable substances from the
danger area. Remove the fuel tank and,
where required, those components which
supply fuel.
– Completely remove the battery before
carrying out any welding in that area.
• Welding fumes, which are harmful to health.
– Always ventilate the workplace well and use
an extraction system.
• Welding spatter and UV radiation.
– Wear protective clothing, gloves and welding
mask or welding goggles.
• Pyrotechnic components.
– Disconnect the battery negative clamp and
cover the battery terminal. Remove any
airbag components.
All the regulations governing Health and Safety at
Work must be complied with during body repairs.
Personal protection
Welding gases and grinding dusts can be harmful
to the health. For this reason, make sure that
rooms are well ventilated and work using the
welding fumes extraction system. Sealants,
underbody protection and paint residues must not
be burnt down with an unshielded flame, as this
will produce gases which are damaging to health.
A dedicated extraction system must always be
used when welding or brazing.
When working with substances containing solvents,
good ventilation must be provided, respiratory
protection must be worn and an extraction system
must be used.
Do not weld in damp areas, if necessary use an
insulation mat. Welding and grinding work near the
battery presents the danger of explosion. For this
reason, it must be removed before the work is
started.
Cutting, grinding and alignment work on metal
panels can cause a noise level of 85 to 90 dB (A)
or even more. For this reason, you must always
wear ear defenders.
The various body areas are subject to very high
forces during realignment work. Should any
component suddenly become detached during this
process, there is a very great danger of injury. For
this reason, pulling chains and pulling shackles
must be secured with arrester cables.
NOTE: Work on airbag systems may only be
performed by persons who have a relevant
certificate of competence.
Some special instructions must be followed when
working on airbag systems:
• Always stand to the side of it when removing or
installing an airbag.
• Always store an airbag or an airbag/steering
wheel with the airbag side pointing upwards and
in a safe place.
• Only install the airbag again when the vehicle
is fully repaired and the complete electrical
systems has been tested.
• Take into account the location of air curtains
and shoulder airbags.
Protection of the vehicle
Protect affected areas from weld spatter and dust
during all welding and grinding work on the vehicle.
If metallic dust stays on the vehicle for some time,
there is the likelihood of film rust formation.
Grinding or sanding work produce tiny spots of
damage to the paint surface, which may cause
corrosion.
For this reason, make sure to:
• Use carbon fibre blankets to protect the vehicle
body.
• Use covering film to protect the vehicle body
from sanding dust and metal dust.
• Take appropriate measures to protect the
interior equipment of the vehicle during any
repair work.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
In addition, take into account:
• Remove fuel supply components as necessary.
• Protect working areas which are in danger of
catching fire with a fireproof blanket.
• The welding must not cause components of the
air conditioning system to become heated.
• Removal of any attached components in the
space adjoining the repair area.
• Use covering paper to protect the interior from
grinding dust.
• Create a definite barrier between the work area
and the interior by using a carbon fibre blanket.
Protective equipment
The following protective equipment must always
be used:
• Protective helmet or welding mask.
• Ear defenders and breathing protection.
• Protective gloves and safety boots.
• Welding fume extraction.
Electronic components
Increased use of comfort and safety electronics in
modern motor vehicles also requires the greatest
attention to be paid during body work. Overvoltages
produced during welding and in alignment work
during bodyshell rectification may cause electronic
systems to be damaged. In particular, the safety
instructions for performing welding work on vehicles
with airbag systems must be adhered to.
NOTE: After disconnecting the power supply and
before performing further work, a wait time of up
to 15 minutes must be maintained, depending on
the vehicle. Work on airbag systems may only be
performed by persons who have a relevant
certificate of competence.
Pay attention to the following points:
• Disconnect the battery negative clamp and
cover the battery terminal.
• Disconnect the electrical connector at the airbag
control module.
• If welding is to be performed directly near a
control module, it must be removed beforehand.
• Never connect the negative cable of the welder
near an airbag or a control module.
• Connect the negative cable of the welder close
to the location of the weld.

Liquefied gas vehicles
Alternative fuel vehicles often require special
handling in the workshop area. Above all, assembly
operations to some extent require particular
knowledge when dealing with the special
technology and the safety regulations.
NOTE: Only fully trained personnel are permitted
to work on alternative fuel vehicles.
These special requirements must be understood
and taken into account in the body shop as well.
CAUTION: Danger of fire and explosion.
The safety instructions must always be
followed when performing service work on
fuel/gas systems. Failure to observe this
instruction can lead to injury.
If the smell of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) or
compressed natural gas (CNG) is noticed in the
workshop, instruct everyone present as follows:
• No smoking and extinguish all naked flames.
• Shut off all electrical and air powered
equipment.
• Evacuate the area.
• Ventilate the area.
• Contact the fire control authorities.
• Move the vehicle to a dedicated, well ventilated
area.
Alternative fuels require special handling:
• Handle them in a specially dedicated, well
ventilated area, which is only accessible to
authorized persons.
• Identify the designated area with new warning
notices.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
• If possible close the main shut-off valve and run
the vehicle on alternative fuel until it switches
automatically to petrol operation. Only then is it
allowed to drive the vehicle into the workshop
or service area.
• If possible do not allow any liquefied gas (LPG)
to escape.
• The ambient temperatures must not exceed
40°C. For this reason the LPG and CNG fuel
tanks must be removed on vehicles with LPG
or CNG operation before using a drying oven
to dry the paint where the temperature exceeds
40°C.
Avoid situations in which fuel from an LPG or CNG
fuel tank can escape. These situations include:
• Extremely hot ambient temperatures.
• Parking near a heating device.
• Raising the vehicle near a ceiling heater.
Refrigerated conversion vehicles
Apart from the special materials used in building
the structure of the refrigerated compartment, such
vehicles have special energy and refrigeration
systems which require special handling during
repair.
CAUTIONS:
Danger of injury. Work on the 230<SP>volt
system of the refrigeration equipment must
only be carried out by trained specialist
personnel.
The refrigeration system is filled with
refrigerant R134a. This can cause frostbite
if it contacts the skin. Pay attention to the
corresponding warning notices and
instructions in the chapter Air Conditioning
Systems.
NOTE: Work on the refrigerant circuit may only be
performed by persons who have a relevant
certificate of competence.
Vehicles with a refrigerated compartment are often
used to transport foodstuffs. For this reason,
additional hygiene regulations must be complied
with during repair work.
Aluminum and plastic are used to construct the
two different types of compartment found on
refrigerated vehicles.
The aluminum conversion is a very stable and
technically perfect variant. However, against this
the relatively high production costs and a lower
payload must be taken into account, because of
the weight of the aluminum conversion itself.
NOTE: Basic and in-depth training is offered on
the following topics. You will find an overview of
the complete range listed in the Training brochure
published by the Ford Service Organization.
The plastic conversion has developed into a light,
clean and economical alternative because of
constant further development of materials and
working techniques.
NOTE: The material combinations, the
workmanship and the working methods must
comply with the current food hygiene regulations.
For this reason, service and repair work on the
refrigerated conversion may only be performed by
authorized and specially trained technicians.
Refrigerated compartment constructions are often
made using both materials. The floor pan is made
of structured, slip-proof aluminum panels and the
wall and ceiling cladding is made of smooth
surfaced plastic elements.
CAUTION: PUR hard foam is flammable. If
PUR hard foam is overheated, it will burn
on its own with a brilliant yellowish flame.
It produces unpleasant choking and toxic
fumes. Special measures must be taken
when welding the vehicle body.
Polyurethane wall and ceiling elements are
manufactured using a sandwich principle. An
insulating polyurethane core is coated with food
grade ABS plastic on one side.
PUR hard foam does not decompose, is rot
resistant and is odorless. These properties make
it suitable for use as insulation.
Because of its closed cell structure, water uptake
by PUR hard foam is for the most part only a
problem at edges. Cut edges or other mechanically
worked surfaces must however be sealed with the
greatest care.
The conversion to a refrigerated vehicle is
performed as made-to-order production. The large
surfaces of the wall and ceiling cladding can be
changed and are particularly easy to repair.
If access to the back of a body panel section is
needed because of body straightening work, in
some circumstances it is cheaper to perform a
cut-out repair instead of removing an element.
The repair process is fully described in the Student
Information booklet Refrigeration System
Technology, Transit 2000.5 Freshline.
