sion with the vehicle in front this vehicle
could become trapped underneath the
frame. There is a risk of fatal injury for the
occupants of the vehicle in front.
Fold the underride guard down and lock it in
place when driving on public roads.
If the folding underride guard is folded up
!
to the upper position, the movement of the
trailer tow bar is very restricted. This could
cause you to damage the vehicle or trailer

angle when driving off-road if you fold up the
underride guard.
