Default Best Warning Label Ever?

This may be the best warning label ever. Just come in on a batch of 2-wire AMP connectors.

What does it mean? I think "NO Executives in suits, get a Mechanic"

That's a good one Carl.

I'll put that on the board at the job...

I think it means, "before doing any maintenance, put on white overalls, a hard hat and grab a big wrench."

I interpret it slightly differently:
When doing real work, use a very big spanner to beat anyone in a suit asking silly questions
There must be a Dilbert on this ..

English would be..."Not User Serviceable"

I'm thinking to get some German-style overalls for working on the cars.

Oh, jeebus, anything hits in google:

I think that this means that it requires either a Ninja with a staff or a construction worker with a wrench bigger than his arm.

That's good but if you have more of a twisted sense of humor, look in a John Deere owner's manual.

Avoid turning your baby into mulch.



Stay clear of rotating drive lines.

Those were for sale on Pelican for something like $500, vintage an all.

Funny, either those coveralls are meant for those with one leg shorter than the other, or for standing sideways on hillsides (with the hill on your left side only)
