Additional Warnings (continued)
Fueling (continued)
●
Always use an original gas cap or an approved OEM replacement.
Never fill fuel tank while the vehicle is inside a building. Gasoline
vapors can cause injury or death and can pose a fire or explosion
risk.
●
Move the vehicle at least 10 ft. before starting the engine.
●
Use extreme caution when starting the engine. Hot engine, muffler,
or drive components can cause serious burns on contact.
Maintenance
●
Do not modify the vehicle from the manufacturer’s original design
and configuration.
●
Never wash or operate the vehicle in freezing temperatures. Water
can freeze in the throttle cable conduit and/or on the throttle
mechanism, possibly resulting in throttle sticking, which can cause
the engine to continue to run and result in loss of control.
●
Assembly, maintenance, and/or repair of this vehicle should only be
performed by designated dealers or authorized repair centers to
ensure quality work and safe vehicle condition.
●
Always disconnect the spark plug wire (gasoline vehicles) or
disconnect the battery before commencing any work in the engine
vicinity or where there is a possibility that the vehicle could move
unexpectedly. Keep the spark plug cable away from the spark plug to
avoid accidental starting.
●
Avoid contacting the muffler, cylinder head, or any potentially hot
area on or around the engine when working on, around, or restarting
the engine.
