Andy the Landy:
Please Please Please stay safe whilst working on your Landy. Make sure if 2 of you are working on it a differant times that each one knows what the other one has done.
I had a battery that was on charge explode in my face this afternoon and its not very pleasant.
I didnt realise it was still on charge and the person that put it on charge forgot to take the caps off.
Leaning into engine bay taking a part off and KaBoom - up it went.
So as the title of the thread says - PLEASE STAY SAFE

Jake:
Blimey  :shock:
are you OK?

paul_humphreys:
Hope you are OK, Its never happened to me but a friend has had it happen nd its not nice.

Paul

Bush Tucker Man:
I'll back that up, as I've seen the results of this, & various angle-grinder accidents.
Not nice.

I hope that other than a nasty fright & some light splashes at you're okay Andy???


Another one to watch out for is catching a wedding ring on (for example) a roofrack as you jump off.
Instant 'Degloving' of the ring finger :shock:
Doesn't look pretty

Andy the Landy:
OK now thanks :D  could see again after about 40mins - luckily got cold water chucked over me straight away. Still a bit itchy on arms and face.
I was very lucky - hope others dont make same mistake. Its put me of DIY for a while.
