BEFORE INITIAL USE
Read, understand and follow the safety label on the in-

the vehicle, it’s equipment and how to use it safely.
Maintaining good performance depends to a large ex-
tent on the operator.
Hydrogen gas is generated as a natural part of
the lead acid battery charging process. A 4%
concentration of hydrogen gas is explosive
and could cause severe injury or death. Charg-
ing must take place in an area that is ade-
quately ventilated (minimum of 5 air
exchanges per hour).
To reduce the chance of battery explosion that
could result in severe injury or death, never
smoke around or charge batteries in an area
that has open flame or electrical equipment
that could cause an electrical arc.
Before a new vehicle is put into operation, the items
shown in the
INITIAL SERVICE CHART

formed (Ref. Fig. 4).
The vehicle battery must be fully charged before initial

Check for correct tire inflation. See GENERAL SPECIFI-
CATIONS.

stop the vehicle for future brake performance tests.
