To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death while transporting the vehicle:
Secure the vehicle and contents.
Do not ride on a vehicle being transported.
Remove windshield before transporting.
Remove the removable countertop section.
Ensure unit drawers and module doors are locked.
Ensure unit is empty to avoid weight shifting.
Remove canopy if transporting at highway speeds.
If vehicle is to be transported at highway speeds, the canopy and removable countertop must be removed and the seat
bottom secured. When transporting vehicle below highway speeds, check for tightness of hardware and cracks in canopy
at mounting points. Always remove windshield when transporting. Always check that the vehicle and contents are ade-
quately secured before transporting. The rated capacity of the trailer or truck must exceed the weight of the vehicle (see
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for vehicle weight) and load plus 1000 lbs. (454 kg). Secure the vehicle using ratchet tie
downs.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from improper servicing techniques:
DO NOT attempt any type of servicing operations before reading all notices, cautions and
warnings in this manual.
Any servicing requiring adjustments to be made to the powertrain while the engine is run-
ning must be made with both drive wheels raised and vehicle properly supported on jack
stands.
To reduce the possibility of engine damage, never operate vehicle at full throttle for more
than 4 - 5 seconds while vehicle is in a ‘no load’ condition.
Reduce the possibility of accidental starting by disconnecting battery at negative terminal
before servicing.
Wear eye protection when working on the vehicle. Use extra care
when working around batteries, or using solvents or compressed
air.
To reduce the possibility of causing an electrical arc, which could result in a battery explo-
sion, turn off all electrical loads from the battery before removing battery wires.
