HOW TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE

Incorrect use of the vehicle or lack of maintenance can cause damage or decreased performance.
Read the following warnings before you operate the vehicle.
To decrease the risk of severe injury or death resulting from loss of vehicle control, the following
When driving vehicle, understand the terrain, traffic conditions and the environmental con-
ditions which change the terrain and the ability to control the vehicle. When possible, stay
in approved areas and do not drive on steep slopes.
Speed in reverse must be limited to a maximum of 10 MPH.
Keep a safe speed when driving down hill. Use the brake to control speed when traveling
down a slope. A sudden stop or change of direction can cause loss of control.
Decrease speed before and during turns. Never drive the vehicle up, down, or across a
slope that is more than 14° (25% grade).
See GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for the vehicle load and seat capacity.
To decrease the risk of severe injury or death resulting from improper vehicle operation, the
Pressing accelerator pedal can cause accidental vehicle movement. Turn the key to the
OFF position when the vehicle is parked. When you leave the vehicle, turn the key to the
OFF position and remove from the switch to prevent accidental operation.
To prevent accidental movement when the vehicle is to be left without an operator, turn
the key to the OFF position and remove the key.
Always stop the vehicle before moving the direction selector.
Do not take the vehicle out of gear while in motion (move without power).
Check the area behind the vehicle before you operate in the reverse direction.
All persons must be seated. Keep entire body inside vehicle and hold on while vehicle is
in motion.
Incorrect and irresponsible operation of this vehicle can cause dangerous conditions for the operator, passengers and
other people in the area. Do not allow children or anyone without a license to operate the vehicle. Children may not have
the skill and ability to make good decisions or strength to operate the vehicle.
Drugs and alcohol decrease the ability of the driver to operate the vehicle safely. Always check with a medical profes-
sional before you operate the vehicle.
When you drive the vehicle at full speed on a dirt road, loose surface or wet grass, the necessary distance to stop the
vehicle will increase. The necessary distance to stop a loaded vehicle is more than the necessary distance to stop a vehi-
cle without a load. In wet weather conditions, apply light pressure to the brakes to supply enough friction to dry the brake
unit. Wet brakes lose much of their effect.
If you drive on a steep hill and can not get enough traction, do not try to turn around on the hill. Slowly drive in reverse
and use the brake to control the speed.
