LOAD BED
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death, read, understand and follow the Warning label
affixed to the front of the load bed. An electric lift bed is the standard bed for the ST 400. Lower
capacity vehicles have a manual dump feature. A load bed warning label is affixed to the front of the
bed. See Appendix A. For safe operation of the vehicle, this label must be understood. See the load
bed warning label for maximum load. The load must be positioned in the bed as far forward as
possible, distributed in such a way that its center of gravity must not be higher than height noted on
label, and secured. Failure to follow these instructions may result in severe injury, damage the
vehicle and/or cause the vehicle to tip over. Use extra care when operating loaded vehicle.
Do not permit any one to ride in the load bed.
Do not drive the vehicle with the load bed raised or with the tailgate unsupported.
When using a load bed, be sure to avoid backing up to the edge of a drop off, such as a loading dock or ravine. A
misjudgment of distance or an unstable surface could result in the vehicle falling backwards.
MANUAL LIFT BED
Exercise caution while operating the manual lift bed to ensure the bed is not released during lifting
or lowering procedure. Severe injury could result if bed is released and traps fingers or other body
parts.
To lift the manual lift bed, pull back on the latch release handle immediately behind the driver seat. Raise the bed using
the handle on the side of the bed.
Manual Bed Latch
On the ST 400, the gas strut will assist in raising the empty load bed and will keep the bed raised.
Over time, the gas strut may allow the load bed to slowly lower.
If this condition is evident, replacement of gas strut is
required. To lower the manual lift bed, grasp the bed handle and lower the bed to the rest position.
Be sure hands are
not trapped by the bed.
