7.10 AFTER-USE MAINTENANCE
(Normal use)
Remove all dirt, water and foreign objects from the
body. Do not use water to wash the engine, the opera-
tion panel, or the filling plugs/caps. Water will dam-
age parts and cause rust built up.
Cover the vehicle with a water-proof sheet when plac-
ing it outdoors.
(In cold season)
Remove all dirt, water and foreign objects from the
body. Any remaining dirt will freeze and cause mal-
functions. Place the vehicle on a concrete floor, dry
firm ground or wooden blocks.
Cover the vehicle with a water-proof sheet when plac-
ing it outdoors.
If the vehicle freezes do not operate, do not
force movement. Melt ice with (hot) water or
wait until the vehicle is not frozen. Please take
special note that our company will not take the
responsibility for any failures caused by forced
movements.
