Starting The Vehicle With Discharged Battery; Coasting - Bad Boy Ambush iS Owner's Manual

OPERATING PROCEDURES
Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
Do not overfill engine. Too much oil may cause smoking or allow oil to enter the air filter enclosure.
B
The oil dipstick/fill cap must be in place before operating the engine. Failure to install the dipstick/fill cap will result in
oil becoming contaminated and/or being discharged into the engine compartment.

STARTING THE VEHICLE WITH DISCHARGED BATTERY

Do not attempt to 'jump start' a vehicle using another vehicle.
The vehicle is equipped with a starter/generator. When starting the engine, the starter/generator functions as a starter
and with the engine running, it functions as a generator. Since the engine stops when the accelerator is released, do not
attempt jump starting.
With the running times associated with this kind of vehicle, the generator is more than adequate to maintain the battery
charge level. The generator is not designed to charge a discharged battery.
If the vehicle is equipped with additional lights and/or a strobe light that is used when the vehicle is not in motion, the
starter/generator may not be adequate to maintain battery charge. If the vehicle battery has become discharged, it must
be charged using a 12V charger that is rated at 10 amps or less. Observe all instructions provided by the manufacturer of
the charger.

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.
