WARNING
Failure to follow all instructions and safety precautions in this manual, in the Service Manual, in other manufacturer’s
manuals and on the safety decals attached to the product could result in serious injury or death to operators or bystanders
and/or damage to property. Do not operate this vehicle before you read and understand the Operation Manual, the Parts
Service Manual for this unit, other applicable manufacturer’s manuals and the safety decals on the product. Each operator
of this unit must read and understand all directions in this manual before they first operate this vehicle. Keep this manual
in the cab for new operators and to remind all operators about safe use.
WARNING
Never weld on a compressed natural gas vehicle unless the compressed natural gas fuel system has been purged with
inert gas.
DANGER
Do not operate the unit or perform repair or maintenance procedures on the unit until you read and understand all of the
instructions in this manual. Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury to operators or bystanders.
DANGER
Make sure the unit is on firm, stable ground before you raise the body and clear the area of all unnecessary people. Do not
prop a body unless it is on firm, stable ground. A unit not on firm, stable ground can roll when raising or propping the body.
This can cause death or serious injury to you or bystanders.
DANGER
Always prop the tailgate when you leave it raised for maintenance, service or cleaning procedures. Any part of your body
between the unit’s body and the tailgate while you prop the tailgate or when the tailgate is propped is dangerous. Death or
serious injury can occur if any part of your body is between the tailgate and the body if the tailgate suddenly closes.
DANGER
A tailgate in motion is dangerous. Serious injury or death can occur if a person is struck by a moving tailgate or becomes
trapped between the tailgate and the body. Clear the area near the tailgate of all unnecessary people before you lower the
tailgate.
