OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION
Owner’s Guide
Read all of manual to become familiar with this vehicle. Pay attention to all NOTICES, CAUTIONS, WARNINGS and DANGERS.
B
STARTING VEHICLE ON A HILL
To reduce the possibility of roll-back that could
result in severe injury or vehicle damage, do
not release the service brake until motor has
started.
Do not hold vehicle on hill by using accelerator and
engine. This will cause premature and excessive wear
of the 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, follow the pro-
cedure below:
• Place the left foot on the service brake and
depress to release the park brake.
• Place the right foot on the accelerator pedal.
• Press the accelerator pedal while releasing the
service brake.
COASTING
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death from coasting at above-recommended
speeds, limit speed with the service brake.
On steep hills, it is possible for the vehicle to coast at
greater than normal speeds encountered on flat sur-
faces. 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 vehi-
cle speed by applying the 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 an open flame or electri-
cal 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 expan-
sion of gasoline. Leave at least 1" (2.5 cm) of
space below the bottom of the filler neck.
Inspect the fuel cap, tank and other compo-
nents for leaks or deterioration that could
cause a hazardous condition.
The fuel tank is located under the seat on the passenger
side of the vehicle. Fill the tank with fresh, clean, auto-
motive regular grade gasoline (87 octane minimum).
High altitude or heavy use/load applications may benefit
from higher octane gasoline. Gasoline ethanol blends
with up to 10% ethanol may be used. DO NOT use gas-
oline that contains Methanol.
Some fuels, called oxygenated or reformulated gaso-
line, consist of gasoline blended with alcohols or
ethers. Excessive amounts of these blends can dam-
age the fuel system or cause performance problems. If
any undesirable operating symptoms occur, use gaso-
line with a lower percentage of alcohol or ether.
