.
DANGER
:
This vehicle is designed to be operated according to the rules for safe operation in this manual. As with any type of vehicle, carelessness or error on the part of the operator can result in serious injury. Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in
serious injury or death.
General Operation
1.
Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the vehicle and in the manual before attempting to operate or service. Keep this manual in a safe place for future and regular reference and for ordering replacement parts.
2.
This is an off-road utility vehicle and it should not be operated on public highways. Know and comply with all laws and regulations governing the use of off-highway vehicles in your area.
3.
This vehicle handles and maneuvers differently than a normal passenger car. Sharp high speed turns and abrupt maneuvers can cause vehicle to roll over or go out of control. Slow down when turning and avoid abrupt maneuvers.
4.
Handling and maneuvering characteristics of vehicle change depending upon cargo load. Heavy loads affect steering, braking, stability, and overall handling of vehicle.
5.
Be familiar with all instructions and controls and their proper operation before starting vehicle.
6.
Never allow adults to operate this vehicle without proper instruction.
7.
Never allow children under 16 years old to operate this vehicle. Children 16 years old and over should read and understand the operation instructions and safety rules in this manual and should be trained and supervised by a parent.
8.
Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways. This vehicle is not intended for use on any public roadway.
9.
Do not operate this vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
10. Never carry more than one passenger. This vehicle is designed to carry the driver and one passenger only. No riders are allowed in cargo box or anywhere else on vehicle.
11. Keep all body parts (i.e. head, arms, hands, legs, feet) inside vehicle when vehicle is in motion.
12. Always remain seated and keep both hands on the steering wheel when driving the vehicle.
3
13. Sit on the center of the seat and keep both feet within the foot platform perimeter. Clean foot platform if dirty and remove any debris from around foot controls, e.g. brake pedal.
14. Do not misuse the utility vehicle. It is an utility vehicle, not a recreation vehicle or toy.
Recreational riding can lead to accidents, severe bodily injury or death.
15. Inspect area around vehicle before moving, especially in reverse. Back up slowly. Always look down and behind before and while backing to avoid a back-over accident. Keep bystanders out of area.
16. Avoid driving through water, since loss of control may occur. Drive belt may slip if exposed to water thus reducing vehicle pulling power and stopping vehicle entirely.
17. Always use vehicle lights while operating in low light situations.
18. Do not mount or leave vehicle while it is in motion or in actual operation.
19. Avoid sudden starts, stops, or turns and always use a level turn-around area.
20. Never leave vehicle unattended with the key in the ignition. Always turn key to the “Stop” position, set the parking brake and remove key.
21. Check overhead clearances carefully before driving under low hanging tree branches, wires, etc., where the operator may be struck or pulled from the unit, which could result in serious injury.
