TOWING TRAILERS/EQUIPMENT, ETC.
NOTICE
•
coasting the vehicle at excessive speed
could cause damage to the drive train
components, such as the drive motor which
could cause the vehicle to stop abruptly.
•
do not exceed 3,000 lbs. (1362 kg)
gross weight towing capability of
vehicle. Failure of brakes/steering
may occur, injuring operator or
bystanders.
•
never use the vehicle on floors,
ramps or other surfaces that are not
strong enough to support the
vehicle when loaded with maximum
rated payload and any towed trailer
with payload.
•
to prevent possible loss of control
and collision or vehicle upset when
towing, the operator must
determine that the vehicle has
adequate braking capacity to stop
either a loaded or unloaded vehicle
and the towed unit(s) on the type(s)
of surface(s) and grade(s) on which
the units will be operated. Sudden
stops may cause trailers and
vehicle to jackknife.
Also, the load must be positioned
on the towed unit(s) so the trailer
tongue weight on the vehicle will
not cause instability or loss of
vehicle steering control.
•
this vehicle can tow heavier loads
than can be stopped under some
conditions.

load
1 trailer: 3000 lbs. (1362 kg)

VEHICLE SERVICE AND“ MAINTENANCE
•
when replacement parts are
required, use genuine cushman
parts. Failure to do so may result in
product malfunction and possible
injury to the operator and/or
bystanders.
Never attempt to perform service or maintenance
functions on this vehicle if you are untrained or
unauthorized. Improper maintenance can cause
hazardous conditions. See your authorized cushman
dealer for necessary maintenance and service.
When it is necessary to raise the vehicle for any
repair or service, use jackstands to provide adequate
support. Do not rely on hydraulic or mechanical
jacks.
It is advisable that your vehicle be equipped with an
hour meter (set #884737) to record hours of
operation. A good maintenance schedule can then
be established.
The following maintenance guide provides a check
list for servicing your vehicle. The guide is set up for
average use on clean, paved surfaces. Vehicles
used in dusty areas, or operated in mud, snow or
water or for winter driving require more frequent
service.
