"Hi, I’m Dean Donnel representing expertvillage.com. Before we start lifting the car I want to talk to you a little bit about safety. You need to use a good pair of jack stands when you lift the car, you could use a concrete block but I don’t advise it because it can break and fall on you. When you work on the car it’s good to have another person around because it’s most dangerous if you’re working by yourself and you have a problem, the car falls on you, there’s nobody to help you. Also remember to keep the area clean, you don’t want to have any oil or dirt around where you can slip and fall and have an injury. It’s good to work at a nice clean area and make sure there’s nobody behind the car to bump it when you’re working and just be safe when you work on a car by watching what’s going around in your area. Make sure that the area is clear and there’s no dirt or oil so you don’t have a problem of slipping and falling. These are some of the tips that we need to think about when doing our oil and filter change today."
