VEHICLE CARE
Post-Operation Care
When vehicle is used in salt-water
environment rinsing the vehicle with
fresh water is necessary to preserve
vehicle and its components. Metal-
lic parts lubrication is highly recom-
mended. Use lub and anti-corrosive or
an equivalent. This must be performed
at the end of each operating day.
SERVICE PRODUCT

ANTI-CORROSIVE (P/N 779168)
When vehicle is operated in muddy
conditions, rinsing the vehicle is rec-
ommended to preserve vehicle and its
components.
Vehicle Cleaning and
Protection
Never use a high pressure washer to
clean the vehicle.
USE LOW PRES-
SURE ONLY (like a garden hose).
High pressure can cause damage to
electrical or mechanical components.
Pay attention to certain areas where
mud or debris can accumulate and po-
tentially cause wear, interferences or
promote corrosion. The list includes
but is not limited to:
– Around exhaust system and be-
tween muffler and muffler cover
– Under and around the fuel tank
– Radiator
– Shock absorbers
– Around front and rear differentials
– Around and underneath engine and
gearbox
– Inside wheels
– On top of skid plates.
Painted parts which are damaged
should be properly repainted to pre-
vent rust.
When required, wash the body with
warm water and soap (only use mild
detergent). Apply non-abrasive wax.
NOTICE
Never clean plastic parts
with strong detergent, degreasing
agent, paint thinner, acetone, etc.
