• Overloading can affect vehicle handling or cause component failure, resulting in loss of control
of vehicle and possible severe personal injury.
• Reduce vehicle load and speed when driving up or down slopes or on uneven terrain.
• Reduce speed and avoid sudden stops when backing up. Failure to do so may cause the vehicle
to overturn or flip over backwards.

backwards and stopping suddenly. Failure to heed this warning may cause vehicle to overturn,
possibly resulting in severe personal injury.
