DRIVING IN REVERSE
Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:
1. Always check for obstacles or people behind the vehicle.
2. Always avoid backing downhill.
3. Back slowly.
4. Apply the brakes lightly for stopping.
5. Avoid turning at sharp angles.
6. Never open the throttle suddenly.
7. Do not use the override switch unless additional wheel speed is required for
vehicle movement. Use the override with caution as rearward vehicle speed
is greatly increased. Do not operate at wide open throttle. Operate the
throttle just enough to maintain a desired speed.
NOTICE
Excessive throttle operation while in the speed limit mode may cause fuel to
build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping and/or engine damage.
