OPERATING A DAMAGED VEHICLE
Operating a damaged vehicle can result in an accident. After any rollover or
other accident, have a qualified service dealer inspect the entire machine for
possible damage, including (but not limited to) seat belts, rollover protection
devices, brakes, throttle and steering systems.
OPERATING THROUGH WATER
Operating through deep or fast-flowing water can cause loss of traction, loss of
control, rollover or accident. Never operate in fast-flowing water or in water that
exceeds the floor level of the vehicle.
Always follow proper procedures for operating in water as described in this
owner’s manual. See page 76.
Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the
brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving slowly. The friction will help
dry out the pads.
IMPROPER CARGO LOADING
Overloading the vehicle or carrying/towing cargo improperly may cause changes
in stability and handling, which could cause loss of control or an accident.
Always follow the instructions in this owner’s manual for carrying cargo.
Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle.
Cargo should be properly distributed and securely attached.
Reduce speed when carrying cargo or pulling a trailer. Allow a greater
distance for braking.
