C.Clean and Inspect the Tailgate
DANGER
Always prop the tailgate when you leave it raised for
maintenance, service or cleaning procedures. Any part of
your body between the unit's body and the tailgate while
you prop the tailgate or when the tailgate is propped is
dangerous. Serious injury or death may occur if any part of
your body is between the tailgate and the body if the
tailgate suddenly closes.
BEFORE you lower the tailgate, MAKE SURE the
area where the tailgate seal mates with the body is
CLEAN AND FREE of any refuse and debris.
DO NOT drive the unit for an extended distance if
you must move the vehicle to another area to clean
and inspect the tailgate seal.
DO NOT go under the tailgate to clear refuse,
instead, use a broom or pole to clean the tailgate
seal.
Inspect the seal for possible wear or damage and
replace if necessary.
