Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Run-In
An initial oil change is required at 100 hours. Check for
any oil or fuel leaks that could have developed in ship-
ment from the factory. As in normal driving, avoid full
throttle starts and rapid acceleration until the engine has
achieved operating temperature.
All engines consume more oil than normal during the first
hours of operation. As internal moving parts are run in, oil
consumption should gradually decrease until the rate of
consumption stabilizes. All engines use some oil even
when in perfect condition and properly broken in. During
the initial period, check the oil level at least every 8 oper-
ational hours (Ref Fig. 18 on page 10). Add oil if the level
on the dipstick indicates that oil is below the safe operat-
ing range.
Do not overfill engine. Too much oil may
cause smoking and/or allow oil to enter
the air intake system.
Both the oil dipstick and fill cap must be in place
before operating the engine. Failure to install the
dipstick and fill cap will result in oil becoming contaminated and/
or oil being discharged into the engine compartment.
The oil should be changed after the first 100 hours of
operation and should be drained while the engine is
warm. See POWERTRAIN MAINTENANCE for checking
oil level and changing oil procedures.
OPERATING THE VEHICLE
Improper use of the vehicle or the lack of
proper maintenance may result in
decreased performance or damage to the vehicle.
Read and understand the following warnings
before attempting to operate the vehicle.
To reduce the possibility of
severe injury or death result-
ing from loss of vehicle con-
trol, the following warnings must be observed:
Drive the vehicle only as fast as terrain and safety
considerations allow. Consider the terrain, traffic
conditions and the environmental factors which
effect the terrain and the ability to control the
vehicle.
Use extra care and reduced speed when driving
on poor surfaces, such as loose dirt, wet grass,
gravel, etc.
Stay in areas suitable for a light duty utility vehi-
cle. Avoid rough, unimproved trails, areas with
large rocks, stumps or holes and avoid steep
slopes.
Avoid driving fast downhill. A sudden stop or
change of direction may result in loss of control.
Use service brake to control speed when traveling
down an incline.
Slow down before and during turns. All turns
should be executed at reduced speed.
All travel should be directly up or down hills.
Use extra care when driving the vehicle across
any incline.
When driving the vehicle on unfamiliar terrain,
drive the vehicle slowly, especially when cresting
a hill.
If the vehicle is unable to climb a hill, do NOT
attempt to turn it around. Turning the vehicle
sideways on a hill could result in the vehicle roll-
ing over. Slowly back down the hill using the ser-
vice brake to control speed.
Check the area behind the vehicle before operat-
ing in reverse.
When operating the electric dump, do not back up
to a drop off, such as a loading dock or ravine.
Misjudgment or an unstable surface could cause
the vehicle to fall backward into the drop off.
Stay in designated areas and
a v o i d s t e e p s l o p e s . T o
