Driving Safely

Driving in Reverse

Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:
1. Always avoid backing downhill.
2. Back slowly.
3. When in reverse, apply the brakes lightly for stopping.
4. Avoid turning at sharp angles in reverse.
5. Never open the throttle suddenly while backing.
Failure to use caution when operating in reverse can result in
serious injury or death. Before shifting into reverse, always check
for obstacles or people behind the vehicle. When it's safe to
proceed, back slowly.
Do not use the override switch unless additional power is required
for vehicle movement. Use with caution.
Avoid backing on inclines, and avoid turning at sharp angles.
NOTE: This vehicle is equipped with a reverse speed limiter. The
override switch should be used with caution, as rearward vehicle speed
is greatly increased. Do not operate at wide open throttle. Open the
throttle just enough to maintain a desired speed.
Excessive throttle operation while in the speed limit mode may
cause fuel to build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping
and/or engine damage.
