Operator Safety
• Never operate your vehicle in fast-flowing water or in water deeper
than that specified in this manual. Wet brakes may have reduced stop-
ping ability. Test your brakes after leaving water. If necessary, apply
them lightly several times to let friction dry out the pads.
• Always be sure there are no obstacles or people behind your vehicle
when operating in reverse. When it's safe to proceed in reverse, move
slowly. Avoid turning at sharp angles in reverse.
• Always use the proper size and type of tires specified in this manual.
Always maintain proper tire pressure as specified on safety labels.
• Never modify this vehicle through improper installation or use of
accessories.
• Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle. Cargo should
be properly distributed and securely attached. Reduce speed and fol-
low the instructions in this manual for hauling cargo or pulling a
trailer. Allow a greater distance for braking.
• Always engage the park brake before getting out of the vehicle. See
page 25.
• Always apply the brakes before engaging or releasing the park brake.
• Always stop the engine before refueling. Remove flammable material
containers from the box before filling them with fuel. Make sure the
refueling area is well ventilated and free of any source of flame or
sparks. Gasoline is extremely flammable. See page 15 for fuel safety
warnings.
• Always remove the ignition key when the vehicle is not in use to pre-
vent unauthorized use or accidental starting.
