New Vehicle Break-In

To provide proper performance and long vehicle life,
follow these guidelines for the first 100 operating hours:
• Check the fluid and engine oil levels regularly and be
alert for indications of overheating in any component of
the vehicle.
• After starting a cold engine, let it warm up for about 15
seconds before accelerating.
• Avoid hard braking situations for the first several hours
of new vehicle break-in operation. New brake linings
may not be at optimum performance until several hours
of use has caused the brakes to become burnished
(broken-in).
• Vary the vehicle speed during operation. Avoid fast
starts and quick stops.
• A break-in oil for engine is not required. Original
engine oil is the same type specified for regular oil
changes.
• Refer to the Maintenance section for any special low
hour checks.
• Check the front suspension positioning and adjust it if
necessary; refer to Adjusting the Front Suspension,
page 32.

Loading the Cargo Box

The capacity of the cargo box is 13 ft.
amount (volume) of material that can be placed in the box
without exceeding the vehicle load ratings can vary greatly
depending on the density of the material. For example, a
level box of wet sand weighs 1500 lb. (680 kg), which
exceeds the load rating by 250 lb. (113 kg). But a level box
of wood weighs 650 lb. (295 kg), which is under the load
rating.
