Order of execution
1. Repair of serious damage to the body should be carried out in a specialized car repair shop, which has the necessary equipment at its disposal.
2. In case of extensive damage to the body, first of all, you should make sure that there are no displacements of the elements of the panels that can affect the handling of the car or cause increased wear of any of its components.
3. Due to the fact that most of the body elements (hood, fenders, etc.) are separate components that can be replaced on an individual basis, it is not advisable to replace them in case of serious damage. Often it is much more reasonable and economical to find a suitable replacement element, which can be found not only in auto parts stores, but also in car junkyards, which, of course, can significantly reduce costs.
When carrying out welding work
Be sure to remove the battery when carrying out welding or other work involving strong sparking near the battery.
Welding and soldering of elements of the air conditioning system should not be carried out. This also applies to those elements of the car, the welding of which can cause heating of the parts of the air conditioner. When carrying out repair and painting work in the drying chamber or in the zone of its heating, the temperature should not exceed +80°.
Connection of units with a body
Warning: To maintain a good ground connection and prevent corrosion damage, do not disconnect the wires from the body. Disconnect wires only from the battery, engine or transmission.
Clean all connections down to metal before connecting ground wires or busbars. Make sure that the bolted connections to the ground are securely tightened.
