MAINTENANCE
Read DANGER and WARNING on page 8.
To ensure trouble-free vehicle performance, it is very important to follow an established preventive mainte-
nance program. Regular and consistent vehicle maintenance can prevent vehicle downtime and expensive
repairs that result from neglect. Use the Pre-Operation and Daily Safety Checklist on page 15 and the follow-
ing Periodic Service Schedule and Periodic Lubrication Schedule to keep the vehicle in proper working con-
dition.
Any vehicle not functioning correctly should be removed from use until it is properly repaired. This will prevent
further damage to the vehicle and avoid the possibility of injury due to unsafe conditions.
Contact your local Pioneer dealer for repairs and semiannual and annual periodic service.

WARNING
• If any problems are found during scheduled inspection or service, do not operate the vehicle
until repairs are made. Failure to make necessary repairs could result in fire, property
damage, severe personal injury, or death.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry, such as rings, watches, chains, etc., when servicing the
vehicle.
• Turn key switch to the OFF position, remove the key, place the Forward/Reverse handle in the
NEUTRAL position, and chock the wheels prior to servicing.
• Moving parts – Do not attempt to service vehicle while the engine is running.
• Do not work on vehicle powertrain or under the cargo bed when it is loaded.
• Turn fuel shut-off valve to the closed (OFF) position (Figure 10, Page 21).
• Hot! Do not attempt to service hot engine or exhaust system. Attempting to do so could cause
severe burns.
• For vehicles with cargo beds, remove all cargo before raising the bed or servicing the vehicle.
If the vehicle is equipped with a prop rod, ensure that it is securely engaged. Do not close bed
until all persons are clear of cargo bed area. Keep hands clear of all crush areas. Do not drop
cargo bed; lower gently and keep entire body clear. Failure to heed this warning could result
in severe personal injury or death.
• To avoid unintentionally starting the vehicle:
- Disconnect battery cables, negative (–) cable first (Figure 1, Page 7).
- Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug.
• If wires are removed or replaced make sure wiring and wire harness are properly routed and
secured. Failure to properly route and secure wiring could result in vehicle malfunction,
property damage, personal injury, or death.
• Lift only one end of the vehicle at a time. Use a suitable lifting device (chain hoist or hydraulic
floor jack) with 1000 lb. (454 kg) minimum lifting capacity. Do not use lifting device to hold
vehicle in raised position. Use approved jack stands of proper weight capacity to support the
vehicle and chock the wheels that remain on the floor. When not performing a test or service
procedure that requires movement of the wheels, lock the brakes.
