COASTING

To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death from coasting at above recommended speeds,
limit speed with service brake.
On steep hills, it is possible for the vehicle to coast at greater than normal speeds encountered on a flat surface. To
reduce the possible loss of vehicle control and severe drivetrain damage, speeds should be limited to no more than
the maximum governed speed on level ground (see GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS). Limit speed by applying pressure
to the brake pedal.
TOP AND WINDSHIELD (if equipped)
The top does not provide protection from roll over or falling objects.
The windshield does not provide protection from tree limbs or flying objects.
Remove windshield and store securely for trailering this vehicle, the windshield is not designed to
withstand highway speeds.
The sun top and windshield provide some protection from the elements; however, they will not keep the operator and
passenger dry in a downpour. This vehicle is equipped with seat belts and an OPS (operator protection system) the
sun top has not been designed to provide roll over protection. In addition, the sun top does not protect against falling
objects nor does the windshield protect against flying objects and tree limbs. Keep arms and legs inside of vehicle

TOWING A TRAILER

The vehicle is equipped with a receiver that can be fitted with a standard 1 7/8" ball. The trailer and its load must not
exceed 1000 lbs (453 kg) and no more than 100 lbs (45 kg) tongue weight may be attached to the hitch. Remember
that the overall capacity of the vehicle, operator, passenger, contents of load bed and accessories must be reduced to
compensate for the trailer and load. The maximum vehicle capacity for vehicle with truck bed is 940 lbs. (426 Kg);
capacity for vehicle with rear seat/load deck is 840 lbs. (381 Kg).
The range of motion of the trailer is limited by the ball and hitch. The trailer should not be used on rough trails or over
objects such as logs, large rocks, holes, etc.
Never install baskets or extensions using the hitch receivers. Such items will change the performance characteristics
of vehicle and result in unsafe handling, possible roll over or vehicle damage.
