Read and understand the following warnings before attempting
to operate the vehicle:
To prevent personal injury or death, observe the
following:
When vehicle is to be left unattended, engage parking
(PARK) brake, move direction selector to neutral, turn
key to 'OFF' position and remove key.
Drive vehicle only as fast as terrain and safety
considerations allow. Consider the terrain and traffic
conditions. Consider environmental factors which
effect the terrain and the ability to control the vehicle.
Avoid driving fast down hill. Sudden stops or change
of direction may result in a loss of control. Use service
brake to control speed when traveling down an incline.
Use extra care and reduced speed when driving on
poor surfaces, such as loose dirt, wet pavement,
gravel, etc.
All travel should be directly up or down hills.
Use extra care when driving the vehicle across an
incline.
Stay in designated areas and avoid steep slopes. Use
the parking brake whenever the vehicle is parked.
Keep feet, legs, hands and arms inside vehicle at all
times.
Avoid extremely rough terrain.
Check area behind the vehicle before operating in
reverse.
Make sure the direction selector is in correct position
before attempting to start the vehicle.
Slow down before and during turns. All turns should
be executed at reduced speed.
Always bring vehicle to a complete stop before
shifting the direction selector.
See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for standard vehicle
load and seating capacity.
Read and understand the following text and warnings before
attempting to service vehicle:
In any product, components will eventually fail to perform
properly as the result of normal use, age, wear or abuse.
It is virtually impossible to anticipate all possible compo-
nent failures or the manner in which each component
may fail.
Be aware that a vehicle requiring repair indicates that the
vehicle is no longer functioning as designed and there-
fore should be considered potentially hazardous. Use
extreme care when working on any vehicle. When diag-
nosing, removing or replacing any components that are
not operating correctly, take time to consider the safety of
yourself and others around you should the component
move unexpectedly.
Some components are heavy, spring loaded, highly cor-
rosive, explosive or may produce high amperage or
reach high temperatures. Battery acid and hydrogen gas
could result in serious bodily injury to the technician/
mechanic and bystanders if not treated with the utmost
caution. Be careful not to place hands, face, feet or body
in a location that could expose them to injury should an
unforeseen situation occur.
Before working on the vehicle, remove all jewelry
(rings, watch, necklaces, etc.).
Be sure no loose clothing or hair can contact moving
parts.
Use care not to touch hot objects.
Raise rear of vehicle and support on jack stands
before attempting to run or adjust powertrain.
Wear eye protection when working on or around the
vehicle. In particular, use care when working around
batteries, using solvents or compressed air.
Hydrogen gas is formed when charging batteries. Do
not charge batteries without adequate ventilation.
Do not permit open flame or anyone to smoke in an
area that is being used for charging batteries. A
concentration of 4% hydrogen gas or more is
explosive.
