HAULING CARGO
WARNING
Hauling cargo improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of
control or brake instability, which can result in serious injury or death. Always
follow these precautions when hauling cargo:
Never exceed the maximum weight capacity of the vehicle. When determining
the weight you are adding to the vehicle, include the weight of the operator,
passengers, non-factory installed accessories, loads in the rack or box and the
load on the trailer tongue. The combined weight of these items must not
exceed the maximum weight capacity.
REDUCE SPEED AND ALLOW GREATER DISTANCES FOR BRAKING
WHEN HAULING CARGO.
Always load the cargo box with the load as far forward and as low as possible.
When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo to maintain
stable driving conditions.
Always operate the vehicle with extreme care when hauling or towing loads.
Slow down and drive in the lowest gear available. Always use LOW gear when
towing or hauling heavy loads.
SECURE ALL LOADS BEFORE OPERATING. Unsecured loads can create
unstable operating conditions, which could result in loss of control of the
vehicle.
OPERATE ONLY WITH STABLE AND SAFELY ARRANGED LOADS. When
handling off-centered loads that cannot be centered, securely fasten the load
and operate with extra caution. Always attach the tow load to the hitch point
designated for your vehicle.
HEAVY LOADS CAN CAUSE BRAKING AND CONTROL PROBLEMS. Use
extreme caution when applying brakes with a loaded vehicle. Avoid terrain or
situations that may require backing downhill.
USE EXTREME CAUTION when operating with loads that extend over the
rack sides. Stability and maneuverability may be adversely affected, causing a
rollover.
DO NOT TRAVEL FASTER THAN THE RECOMMENDED SPEEDS. Vehicle
should never exceed 10 mph (16 km/h) while towing a load on a level grass
surface. Vehicle speed should never exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when towing
loads in rough terrain, while cornering, or while ascending or descending a hill.
LOAD CAPACITY
Your vehicle has been designed to carry or tow specific capacities. Always read
and understand the load distribution warnings listed on the warning labels. The
total load (operator, passengers, non-factory installed accessories, cargo and
weight on hitch) must not exceed the maximum weight capacity of the vehicle.
