Transporting the Vehicle
NOTICE:
Towing your GEM vehicle could result in severe damage to the vehicle. Vehicle failures
resulting from dolly towing will void warranty.
When transporting the GEM vehicle on a trailer, always use a trailer with an approved load
rating greater than the GEM vehicle’s curb weight plus any installed accessories or cargo.
Refer to the specifications section beginning on page 134.
Always tie the frame of the GEM vehicle to the transporting unit securely with suitable
straps. Always secure the straps to the front sub-frame and the rear frame of the GEM
vehicle. Never place tie straps across any plastic body or floor panel components.
Transport the vehicle in a closed trailer if possible. Use the following guidelines when
transporting the vehicle on an open trailer.
1. Always transport the GEM vehicle facing forward on the trailer.
2. Set the park brake. Remove the key to prevent loss.
3. Secure the seats, hood and any items that could be damaged or dislodged by strong
winds. Secure or remove cargo. If equipped with hard doors, put all windows down.
4. Never allow passengers on a trailer or in a trailered vehicle.
5. Reduce speed and drive with caution.
