Just take your time. Double and triple check your work. Once a valve is open.... its usually to late.

 

Make sure there is no pressure before trying to unhook a hose. I've made that mistake and thankfully it was only corn oil but the entire front side of me was covered. Top to bottom, in my eyes, ears, you name it. Got in a hurry and forgot to bleed the pressure.
