Vehicles are used for different purposes, so it is not possible to know and inform of every possible occurrence. Be careful
when you drive to prevent avoidable personal injury or damage to the vehicle. All users must read and obey this manual.
Make sure you give special attention to the CAUTIONS, WARNINGS and DANGERS.
People who do maintenance or repairs on the vehicle must have skill and experience to identify and prevent conditions
that can cause personal injury or death and damage to the vehicle.
VENTILATION
Always store gasoline vehicles in an area with good ventilation. Good ventilation prevents the accumulation of gasoline
fumes within an enclosed area.
Never put fuel in a vehicle in an area that is subject to flame or spark. Pay particular attention to natural gas or propane
water heaters and furnaces.
Never work around or operate a vehicle in an environment that does not allow ventilation of exhaust gases from the area.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas that can cause unconsciousness and is potentially lethal.
