Do not try to tow the vehicle with ropes, chains or any device different from a tow bar
approved by the manufacturer.
Do not tow the vehicle on highways.
Do not tow the vehicle at speeds more than 12 mph (19 kph).

NOTICE: The direction selector has a neutral lock to prevent
the driven clutch from turning the rear wheels when
the vehicle is being towed by another vehicle.

direction selector remains locked in the neutral position.

and R. During that motion the pin will snap into the hole
in the direction selector mounting bracket, preventing
movement.
When in this position, the direction selector remains

VEHICLE STORAGE
Storing a vehicle for 30 days or more requires proper preparation to prevent a build-up of varnish and gum in the fuel
system, and corrosion in the engine. The following procedure will prepare the vehicle for storage:
Store your vehicle in an area that is well ventilated. Cover the vehicle. Covers designed specifically for vehicles are
recommended because they allow enough ventilation to prevent condensation and corrosion.
Store the vehicle in a clean, dry area. Do not store in an area with a stove, furnace, water
heater, or other appliance that uses a pilot light, or has a device that can create a spark.
Do not handle fuel in an area that is not adequately ventilated. Do not smoke near the
fuel tank or refuel near open flame or electrical items which could produce a spark.
When refueling, inspect the fuel cap for leaks or breaks that could result in fuel spillage.
Always wear safety glasses while refueling to prevent possible eye injury from gasoline
or gasoline vapor.
Keep hands, clothing and jewelry away from moving parts. Use caution not to contact
hot objects. Raise the rear of the vehicle and support on jack stands before attempting
to run the engine.
NOTICE: The vehicle can be stored with the old oil left in the engine. The oil must be changed when the vehi-
cle is removed from storage, before resuming operation. This removes condensation that may have
accumulated in the crankcase.
Do not leave the parking brake engaged during the storage period. Use wheel chocks to prevent the
vehicle from rolling.
