Driving Safely

Load Distribution

1. Never exceed the maximum capacities for hauling cargo as stated
on the load distribution warning labels and on page 57.
2. Always load the cargo box with the load (1) as far forward as
possible.
3. Always operate the vehicle with extreme caution whenever hauling
or towing loads. Balance, handling and control may be affected.
4. Slow down.
5. The cargo box dump latch must be securely latched before loading
and operating. Unintentional box tilting will result if weight is
placed in the rear of the box and the latch is not secured.
Operating with the cargo box in the raised position can cause
serious injury and damage to the vehicle. The cargo box could
close unexpectedly and injure the driver. The rear tires will also
catch the rear of the box, damaging the vehicle and creating
hazardous driving conditions.
Never operate this vehicle with the cargo box in the raised
position.
