SAFETY
UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THE VEHICLE
Leaving the keys in the vehicle can lead to unauthorized use of the vehicle by
someone under the age of 16, without a drivers license, or without proper
training. This could result in an accident or rollover. Always remove the key
when the vehicle is not in use.
HOT DRIVE SYSTEMS
WARNING
The motor and controller are very hot during and after use of the vehicle. Hot
components can cause burns and fire. Do not touch hot drive system
components. Always keep combustible materials away from the drive system.
Use caution when traveling through tall grass, especially dry grass, and when
traveling in muddy conditions. Always inspect areas near the drive system after
driving through tall grass, weeds, brush, other tall ground cover, and muddy
conditions. Promptly remove any grass, debris, or foreign matter clinging to the
vehicle. Pay particular attention to the drive system area.
VENTILATION WHEN CHARGING BATTERIES
Failure to provide adequate ventilation while charging batteries can result in an
explosion. Volatile hydrogen gas is emitted during charging and may accumulate
in pockets at the ceiling.
• Always ensure a minimum of 5 air changes per hour in the charging area.
• Always remove any storage covers from the vehicle and open any cab doors
(if equipped) before charging.
