Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Maintain a safe speed when driving down
hill. Use service brake to control speed
when traveling down an incline. A sudden
stop or change of direction may result in
loss of control.
To prevent loss of control, do not move the
direction selector of a PDS vehicle while the
vehicle is in motion. Moving the selector will
result in a sudden slowing of the vehicle and
the beeping of a warning device.
Slow down before and during turns. All turns
should be made at reduced speed.
Never drive vehicle up, down, or across an
incline that exceeds 14° (25% grade).
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death resulting from improper vehicle opera-
tion, the following warnings must be observed:
Refer to GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for
seating capacity.
Depressing accelerator pedal will release
foot operated park brake and may cause
inadvertent vehicle movement. Turn the key
to the 'OFF' position whenever the vehicle is
parked.
To prevent inadvertent movement when the
vehicle is to be left unattended, engage the
park brake, move direction selector to for-
ward position, turn key to 'OFF' position and
remove key.
Make sure that the direction selector is in
correct position before attempting to start
the vehicle.
Always bring the vehicle to a complete stop
before shifting the direction selector.
Do not take vehicle out of 'gear' while in
motion (coast).
Check the area behind the vehicle before
operating in reverse.
All occupants must be seated. Keep entire
body inside vehicle and hold on while vehi-
cle is in motion.
