22
If the vehicle is equipped with additional lights and/or a strobe light that is used when the vehicle is not in motion, the
starter/generator may not be adequate to maintain battery charge. If the vehicle battery has become discharged, it must
be charged using a 12V charger that is rated at 10 amps or less. Observe all instructions provided by the manufacturer
of the charger.
COASTING
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from coasting at above recommended speeds,
limit speed with service brake.
On steep hills, it is possible for the vehicle to coast at greater than normal speeds encountered on a flat surface. To
reduce the possible loss of vehicle control and severe drivetrain damage, speeds should be limited to no more than the
maximum governed speed on level ground (see GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS). Limit speed by applying pressure to
the brake pedal.
FUEL
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from improper fuel handling:
Do not smoke near the fuel tank.
Do not refuel near open flame or electrical items which could produce a spark.
Always handle gasoline in a well ventilated area.
Always wear eye protection to protect against splashed fuel and fuel vapors.
Always allow adequate space for the expansion of gasoline. Leave at least 1" (2.5 cm) of space
below bottom of filler neck.
Inspect fuel cap, tank and other components for leaks or deterioration that could cause a hazard-
ous condition.
The fuel tank is located under the seat on the passenger side of
the vehicle. Fill the tank with fresh, clean, automotive grade gas-
oline. High altitude or heavy use/load applications may benefit
from higher octane gasoline.
Do not use gasoline which contains methanol.
Oxygenated or reformulated gasoline, is blended with alcohols
or ethers. Excessive amounts of these blends can damage the
fuel system or cause performance problems. If any undesirable
operating symptoms occur, use gasoline with a lower percentage of alcohol or ether.
Use fresh regular grade unleaded fuel. Ethanol blend fuel up to 10% is permissible.
