CARGO AND TRANSPORTATION
While reading this Operator’s Guide, remember that:
WARNING
Indicates a potential hazard that, if not avoided, could result in serious in-
jury or death.
Cargo
WARNING
The vehicle handling, stability and braking distance are affected when load-
ing racks and using the vehicle. Correct loading and weight distribution
are therefore important. Never overload, tow or carry cargo improperly.
Always ensure the cargo is safely secured and properly distributed on the
rack(s) before operating the vehicle. Safely reduce speed according to ter-
rain conditions when carrying cargo or pulling a trailer. Allow greater dis-
tance for breaking. Always secure cargo as low as possible on the rack(s)
to reduce the effect of a higher center of gravity. Failure to follow the rec-
ommendations here could cause changes in vehicle handling which could
lead to an accident resulting in severe injuries including the possibility of
death.
When transporting cargo on the vehicle, respect these maximum loads.
