4. To select low range from high range,
move the shift lever downward one
position until the letter “L” is dis-
played on the LCD information
gauge.

NOTE: The high range is for nor-
mal driving with light loads. The low
range is for carrying heavy loads or
trailer towing. Compared to HIGH
range, the LOW range position pro-
vides slower speed and greater
torque to the wheels.
5. To select park, move the shift lever
completely up until the letter “P” is
displayed on the LCD information
gauge.
Driving the Vehicle
Once the engine is at normal operating
temperature, the vehicle is ready to be
driven.
1. With the engine idling, press the foot
brake pedal to apply the brake; then
select the appropriate operating range
and/or direction with the shift lever.
2. Release the foot brake pedal and
press the accelerator to slowly add
power to start moving.
3. To slow down or stop, release the
accelerator and press the foot brake
pedal as necessary to slow or stop the
vehicle.
Braking/Stopping
Always allow plenty of room and time to
stop smoothly. Sometimes quick stops
are inevitable, so always be prepared.
Whether you’re stopping slowly or stop-
ping quickly, do this:
1. Release the accelerator; then press the
foot brake pedal to apply the brake.
2. If the wheels lock, release them for a
second; then apply them again. On
surfaces such as ice, mud, or loose
gravel, pump the brake pedal rapidly.
3. Never “ride” the brake. Even main-
taining minimal pressure on the brake
pedal will cause the brake pads to
drag on the disc and may overheat the
brake fluid.
Parking
Parking involves following the previous
rules for braking; then:
1. After the vehicle stops, shift into
park.
2. Turn off the ignition.
3. If you have to park on a hill, block the
wheels on the downhill side.
Basic Turns
Steering effort is at its lowest in two-wheel
drive (2WD). Greater effort is needed
when in four-wheel drive (4WD). The
greatest effort is needed when in four-
wheel drive and the rear differential is
locked.
CAUTION
Always shift into low range when
operating on wet or uneven terrain,
when towing or pushing heavy loads,
and when using a plow. Failure to fol-
low this caution may result in prema-
ture V-belt failure or in damage to
related drive system components.
CAUTION
Never increase engine speed above
idle RPM when in park or belt damage
will occur.
! WARNING
Excessive repetitive use of the
hydraulic brake for high speed stops
will cause overheating of the brake
fluid and premature brake pad wear
which will result in an unexpected
loss of brakes.
! WARNING
Use only Cushman-approved brake
fluid. Never substitute or mix differ-
ent types or grades of brake fluid.
Brake loss can result. Check brake
fluid level and pad wear before each
use. Brake loss can result in serious
injury or death.
