MOVING LOADS AND DOING WORK
NOTE:
When carrying heavy loads in
cargo rack or pulling a loaded trailer
operate with the shift lever in L (low
range).
Loading the Cargo Rack
NOTICE
When loading or unload-
ing, do not exceed the weight limit
of 90 kg (200 lb).
Load cargo as low as possible – a
higher load can raise the vehicle’s
center of gravity, which can reduce
stability. Position cargo on the rack as
evenly as possible.
Secure the load on the cargo rack. Do
not secure cargo to the cage or other
part of the vehicle. If it is not prop-
erly secured, a load may slide or fall
off, possibly striking occupants or by-
standers; or it may shift during riding,
affecting the handling of the vehicle.
Objects that are high may affect visibil-
ity for the driver and may act as projec-
tiles in case of an accident. Loads that
protrude sideways can get snagged or
caught in bush, branches or other ob-
stacles. Avoid covering and obstruct-
ing the brake lights with the cargo.
Ensure no cargo protrudes outside the
cargo rack and that cargo will not inter-
fere with your visibility or control of the
vehicle.
Do not overload cargo rack.
WARNING
Never carry gasoline container(s)
or any dangerous liquids on the
cargo rack unless it is designed
and approved for this vehicle.
WARNING
Never overload, tow or carry cargo
improperly. Safely reduce speed
according to terrain conditions
when carrying cargo or pulling a
trailer, and avoid hills and rough
terrain. Allow greater distance for
braking. Always secure cargo as
low as possible to reduce the ef-
fect of a higher center of gravity.
Failure to follow the recommenda-
tions here could cause changes in
vehicle handling which could lead
to an accident.
Hauling a Load
(if Equipped with Hitch)
Never pull a load by attaching it to the
cage; this can cause the vehicle to tip
over. Use only the trailer hitch (if in-
stalled) to pull a load.
In an emergency situation, use the re-
covery hook to recover a stuck vehicle.
When pulling loads with a chain or ca-
ble, ensure that there is no slack before
starting and maintain tension while
pulling.
When pulling loads with a chain or ca-
ble, be sure to brake progressively.
The inertia of the load could lead to an
impact.
When hauling a load, respect the maxi-
mum hauling capacity. See
PULLING
A TRAILER
subsection.
WARNING
Slack can cause the chain or cable
to break and snap back.
When pulling another vehicle, be sure
that someone is controlling the pulled
vehicle. They must brake and steer to
prevent the vehicle from going out of
control.
Reduce your speed when hauling a
load and turn gradually. Avoid hills and
rough terrain. Never attempt steep
hills. Allow more distance for brak-
