Read all of Manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Fig. 2 Safety and Operation Label
TERRAIN
The vehicle is designed for use on improved roads (but
not on public highways). The vehicle may also be used
on established trails or open terrain that is free from
stumps, large rocks or holes.
The vehicle should not be used to cross water.
VEHICLE CAPACITY
Due to the variety of ways the vehicle may be
used, it is important that the operator consider
any potential hazards before use to prevent
serious injury or death.
The vehicle may be used to transport a maximum of
two people within the operator/passenger compart-
ment and cargo in the dump bed. Never carry passen-
gers in the dump bed. The total payload is 800 lbs. (363
kg).
The weight of the driver and passenger plus any options
or accessories must be deducted from the total payload
rating to determine the dump bed capacity. Remember
that towing a trailer will reduce the payload of the vehicle
itself.
Remember that volume of your load can be misleading.
Loading the vehicle to its rated capacity with dry sand,
fertilizer, sod, etc. can be handled with complete safety.
The same load when wet will grossly overload the vehi-
cle and increase the potential for roll over and damage to
the vehicle.
MODIFICATIONS TO VEHICLE
Changes to the weight distribution or the center
of gravity may make it unstable or prone to roll
over which could result in injury or death to the
operator or passenger.
Do not modify the vehicle in any manner that will change
the weight distribution of the vehicle. Changes to the
weight distribution or the center of gravity may make it
unstable or prone to roll over which could result in injury
or death to the operator or passenger.
DUMP BED
Be careful when loading the vehicle. Secure loads to pre-
vent shifting. Do not overload vehicle. A dump bed warn-
ing label is affixed to the inside of the bed on the front
panel (Ref Fig. 3 on page 3).
This label must be understood and observed at all times
for safe operation of the vehicle. The dump bed is limited
to a maximum load of 500 lbs (228 kg). The load must be
positioned in the bed as far forward as possible, its cen-
ter of gravity must not be higher than 5" (12 cm) above
the bed floor, and securely fastened down. Failure to fol-
low these instructions could cause personal injury, dam-
age to the vehicle and/or cause the vehicle to tip over.
Operate the vehicle with awareness of the load.
Do not drive the vehicle with the dump bed raised or with
the tailgate unsupported.
When using the optional electric dump, be sure to avoid
backing up to the edge of a drop off, such as a loading
dock or ravine. A misjudgment of distance or an unstable
surface could result in the vehicle falling backwards.
Always insure that no one is behind or close to the dump
bed while the electric dump mechanism is being ope
rated
Passengers should never be allowed to ride in
the dump bed. Severe injury or death could
result if they should fall out or the vehicle is
involved in an accident or sudden maneuver.
