MOVING LOADS AND DOING WORK
When pulling loads with a chain or cable:
– Ensure that there is no slack before starting and maintain tension
while pulling.
– Be sure to brake progressively. The inertia of the load could lead to
an impact.

When hauling a load, respect the maximum hauling capacity, refer to
Pulling a Trailer .
When pulling another vehicle, be sure that someone is controlling the
pulled vehicle. They must brake and steer to prevent the vehicle from
going out of control.
Reduce your speed when hauling a load and turn gradually.
Avoid hills and rough terrain.
Never attempt steep hills.
Allow more distance for braking, especially on inclined surfaces and
when a passenger (2-up models) is on board.
Be careful not to skid or slide.

Riding this vehicle with a trailer substantially increases the risk of top-
pling, especially on inclined slopes. If a trailer is used behind the ve-
hicle make sure that its hitch is compatible with the one on the vehicle.
Make sure the trailer is horizontal with the vehicle. (In some instances
a special extension may have to be installed on the vehicle hitch). Use
security chains or cables to secure the trailer with the vehicle.
Reduce your speed when pulling a trailer and turn gradually. Avoid
hills and rough terrain. Never attempt steep hills. Allow more distance
for braking, especially on inclined surfaces and when a passenger
(2-up models) is on board. Be careful not to skid or slide.
Improperly loading a trailer may cause a loss of control.
