Storage - Yerf-Dog Retriever 4x2 Owner's Manual

• The vehicle to be transported should be tied securely to the trailer, with the Forward/Reverse
handle in NEUTRAL, the key switch OFF, and the parking brake firmly engaged.
• Because of the added length of the trailer, use caution when making turns.
• Do not transport the vehicle on a trailer with a load in the vehicle cargo bed.
Use an approved trailer that has a load rating of at least 2000 lb. (909 kg) per vehicle being transported.
NOTE: A two-car trailer should be rated at 2 x 2000 lb. =4000 lb. (2 x 909=1818 kg).
Always transport vehicle on an approved trailer, observing all the warning precautions.

STORAGE

Read DANGER and WARNING on page 7.
Failure to follow danger and warning notices may result in severe personal injury and or death.
DANGER
• Do not attempt to drain gasoline when the engine is hot or while it is running.
• Be sure to clean up any spilled gasoline before operating the vehicle.
• Store gasoline in an approved gasoline container only. Store in a well-ventilated area
away from sparks, open flames, heaters or heat sources.
• Keep gasoline out of the reach of children.
• Do not siphon gasoline from the vehicle.
WARNING
• Remove the key and leave the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position during
Storage. This is to prevent unintentionally starting the vehicle or a fire hazard.
• Do not attempt to charge frozen batteries or batteries with bulged cases. Discard the
battery according to state and local environmental legal guidelines for battery disposal.
Frozen batteries can explode.
CAUTION
• Batteries in a low state of charge will freeze at low temperatures.
PREPARING THE VEHICLE FOR EXTENDED STORAGE
1. Unload the vehicle so that tires are supporting only the weight of the vehicle.
2. Store vehicle in a cool, dry place. This will minimize battery self-discharge. If the battery appears
to be weak, have it charged by a trained technician. Use an automotive-type 12-volt battery charger
rated at 10 amps or less.
3. Drain and seal the fuel tank.
