SAFETY INFORMATION
Read all of Section B and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.
GENERAL OPERATION
ALWAYS:
use the vehicle in a responsible manner and maintain the vehicle in safe operating condition.
read and observe all warnings and operation instruction labels affixed to the vehicle.
follow all safety rules established in the area where the vehicle is being operated.
reduce speed to compensate for poor terrain or conditions.
apply service brake to control speed on steep grades.
maintain adequate distance between vehicles.
reduce speed in wet areas.
use extreme caution when approaching sharp or blind turns.
use extreme caution when driving over loose terrain.
use extreme caution in areas where pedestrians are present.
MAINTENANCE
ALWAYS:
maintain your vehicle in accordance with the manufacturer’s periodic service schedule.
ensure that mechanics performing repairs are trained and qualified to do so.
follow the manufacturer’s directions if you do any maintenance on your vehicle. Be sure to disable the vehicle before
performing any maintenance. Disabling includes removing the key from the key switch and removal of a battery wire.
insulate any tools used within the battery area in order to prevent sparks or battery explosion caused by shorting the
battery terminals or associated wiring. Remove the batteries or cover exposed terminals with an insulating material.
check the polarity of each battery terminal and be sure to rewire the batteries correctly.
use specified replacement parts. Never use replacement parts of lesser quality.
use recommended tools.
determine that tools and procedures not specifically recommended by the manufacturer will not compromise the safety
of personnel nor jeopardize the safe operation of the vehicle.
support the vehicle using wheel chocks and safety stands. Never get under a vehicle that is supported by a jack. Lift
the vehicle in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Never attempt to maintain a vehicle in an area where exposed flame is present or persons are smoking.
be aware that a vehicle that is not performing as designed is a potential hazard and must not be operated.
The manufacturer cannot anticipate all situations, therefore people attempting to maintain or repair the vehicle must
have the skill and experience to recognize and protect themselves from potential situations that could result in severe
personal injury or death and damage to the vehicle. Use extreme caution and, if unsure as to the potential for injury,
refer the repair or maintenance to a qualified mechanic.
