Read and understand the following warnings
before attempting to operate the vehicle:
To prevent personal
injury or death,
observe the
following:
When vehicle is to be left unattended,
engage park brake, move direction selector
to neutral, turn key to ‘OFF’ position and
remove key.
Drive vehicle only as fast as terrain and
safety considerations allow. Consider the
terrain and traffic conditions. Consider
environmental factors which effect the
terrain and the ability to control the vehicle.
Avoid driving fast down hill. Sudden stops
or change of direction may result in a loss of
control. Use service brake to control speed
when traveling down an incline.
Use extra care and reduced speed when
driving on poor surfaces, such as loose dirt,
wet grass, gravel, etc.
All travel should be directly up or down hills.
Use extra care when driving the vehicle
across an incline.
Stay in designated areas and avoid steep
slopes. Use the park brake whenever the
vehicle is parked.
Keep feet, legs, hands and arms inside
vehicle at all times.
Avoid extremely rough terrain.
Check area behind the vehicle before
operating in reverse.
Make sure the direction selector is in correct
position before attempting to start the
vehicle.
Slow down before and during turns. All turns
should be executed at reduced speed.
Always bring vehicle to a complete stop
before shifting the direction selector.
See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for vehicle
load and seating capacity.
Read and understand the following text and
warnings before attempting to service vehicle:
In any product, components will eventually fail to perform
properly as the result of normal use, age, wear or abuse.
It is virtually impossible to anticipate all possible compo-
nent failures or the manner in which each component
may fail.
Be aware that a vehicle requiring repair indicates that the
vehicle is no longer functioning as designed and there-
fore should be considered potentially hazardous. Use
extreme care when working on any vehicle. When diag-
nosing, removing or replacing any components that are
not operating correctly, take time to consider the safety of
yourself and others around you should the component
move unexpectedly.
Some components are heavy, spring loaded, highly cor-
rosive, explosive or may produce high amperage or
reach high temperatures. Battery acid and hydrogen gas
could result in serious bodily injury to the technician/
mechanic and bystanders if not treated with the utmost
caution. Be careful not to place hands, face, feet or body
in a location that could expose them to injury should an
unforeseen situation occur.
Always use the appropriate tools listed in the tool list and
wear approved safety equipment.
Before working on
the vehicle, remove
all jewelry (rings,
watches, necklaces, etc.)
Be sure no loose clothing or hair can contact
moving parts.
Use care not to touch hot objects.
Raise rear of vehicle and support on jack
stands before attempting to run or adjust
powertrain.
Wear eye protection when working on or
around the vehicle. In particular, use care
when working around batteries, using
solvents or compressed air.
Hydrogen gas is formed when charging
batteries. Do not charge batteries without
adequate ventilation.
Do not permit open flame or anyone to
smoke in an area that is being used for
charging batteries. A concentration of 4%
hydrogen gas or more is explosive.
