OPERATING PROCEDURES
Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.
4
Do not hold vehicle on hill by using accelerator and engine. This will cause premature and excessive wear to drive
train components.
To reduce the possibility of permanent damage to the drive system, it is important to prevent excessive roll-back
when starting the vehicle on a hill.
Place left foot on service brake and release the park brake. Depress accelerator with right foot and release the ser-
vice brake by lifting left foot.
COASTING
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from coasting at above recommended speeds,
limit speed with service brake.
On steep hills, it is possible for the vehicle to coast at greater than normal speeds encountered on a flat surface. To
reduce the possible loss of vehicle control and severe drivetrain damage, speeds should be limited to no more than
the maximum governed speed on level ground (see GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS). Limit speed by applying service
brake.
FUEL
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from improper fuel handling:
Do not smoke near the fuel tank.
Do not refuel near open flame or electrical items which could produce a spark.
Always handle gasoline in a well ventilated area.
Always wear eye protection to protect against splashed fuel and fuel vapors.
Always allow adequate space for the expansion of gasoline. Leave at least 1" (2.5 cm) space
below bottom of filler neck.
Inspect fuel cap, tank and other components for leaks or deterioration that could cause a hazard-
ous condition.
The fuel tank is located under the seat on the passenger side of the vehicle. Fill the tank with fresh, clean, automo-
tive grade gasoline. High altitude or heavy use/load applications may benefit from higher octane gasoline.
Do not
use gasoline which contains Methanol.
Some fuels, called oxygenated or reformulated gasoline, are gasoline blended with alcohols or ethers. Excessive amounts of
these blends can damage the fuel system or cause performance problems. If any undesirable operating symptoms occur, use gas-
oline with a lower percentage of alcohol or ether.
Use fresh regular grade unleaded fuel. Ethanol blend fuel up to 10% is permissible.
