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.
TAIL GATE OPERATION
To open the tail gate, lift tail gate straight up with a sharp upward pull to lift out of the closed position and pivot out for
open position. To remove the tail gate, remove the side cables from the load bed and open tail gate until it is straight
down, move tail gate panel straight up to remove from pins and remove from the load bed. Reassemble in reverse
order.
