this publication.
Certain replacement parts can be used independently and/or in combination with other accessories to modify a manu-
factured vehicle to permit the vehicle to operate at or in excess of 20 mph. When a manufactured vehicle is modified
in any way by the Distributor, Dealer or customer to operate at or in excess of 20 mph on public streets or roads,
UNDER FEDERAL LAW the modified product will be a Low Speed Vehicle (LSV) subject to the strictures and require-
ments of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 571.500. In these instances, pursuant to Federal law the Distributor
or Dealer MUST equip the product with headlights, rear lights, turn signals, seat belts, top, horn and all other modifica-
tions for LSVs mandated in FMVSS 571.500, and affix a Vehicle Identification Number to the product in accordance
with the requirements of FMVSS 571.565. Pursuant to FMVSS 571.500, and in accordance with the State laws appli-
cable in the places of sale and use of the product, the Distributor, Dealer or customer modifying the vehicle also will be

tion on-line, go to www.ecfr.gov.
The manufacturer will NOT approve Distributor, Dealer or customer changes that change a product into a Low Speed
Vehicle (LSV).
This vehicle meets the current applicable standard for safety and performance requirements.

must understand how to operate the vehicle correctly in different situations and on different types of
terrain.
All operators must read, understand, and comply with the owner’s manual and all warning and instruc-

dition. Failure to inspect and confirm that the vehicle is safe to operate increases the risk of an accident.
Follow all inspection and maintenance procedures and schedules described in this owner’s manual. See SCHED-
ULED MAINTENANCE on page 29.
LoadOperation
The weight of cargo and occupants affects vehicle operation. Carefully calculate how the vehicle is loaded and how to
safely operate it. Follow the instructions in this manual for loading guidelines and tire pressure.
Do not exceed weight capacities specified for your vehicle. Capacities are listed in Maximum Cargo Load / Maximum
Weight Capacity on page 11 of this manual. As passenger weight increases, cargo weight needs to be adjusted to
ensure the maximum vehicle weight capacity is not exceeded.
Tire pressure must be adjusted to accommodate the load being carried. See Tire Pressure on page 11 for pressure
specifications.
Verify tire pressure, and drive slowly and carefully to maintain control of the vehicle if driving under any of the following
conditions:
• passenger and/or cargo exceeds half the maximum weight capacity
• driving over obstacles
• towing
• climbing a hill
FuelHandlingGuidelines
Gasoline is flammable and can be explosive in some conditions. Use the following guidelines when handling fuel:
• Always use caution when handling gasoline.
• Refuel in a well-ventilated area.
• Turn off the engine before refueling.
• Use an approved gasoline container to store fuel.
• Remove portable gasoline containers from the vehicle and place on the ground before filling to prevent ignition
caused by electrical static discharge.
• Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in or near the area where refueling is done or where gasoline is
stored.
• Do not overfill the tank. Do not fill the tank neck.
• If any gasoline contacts skin, immediately wash with soap and water. If any gasoline gets on clothing, change
immediately.
For refueling procedure, refer to Fuel on page 22.

SAFETY
Carbon Monoxide Exposure
Carbon monoxide is an odorless gas that is formed as a natural part of the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels.
Carbon monoxide is poisonous, and can cause loss of consciousness or death in a short period of time. Never start
the engine or allow it to run in an enclosed area.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, stop the engine and get fresh air immediately:
Operate this vehicle outdoors or in well-ventilated areas only.
Drivingin Reverse
Make sure the area behind the vehicle is clear before operating in reverse. After making sure it is clear and safe to
operate in reverse, accelerate slowly. Avoid making sharp turns in reverse. Refer to Driving in Reverse on page 26 for
operational information.
DrivingaDamaged Vehicle
Driving a damaged vehicle is not safe.
If the vehicle has been involved in any type of accident, have it inspected by a qualified service dealer to verify that it
is safe for operation.
Drivingat Maximum Speeds
Maximum speed operation increases the risk of loss of control. Always drive at a speed that is appropriate for the ter-
rain, visibility, operating conditions, and your skill and experience level. Use the brake to control speed and maintain
control of the vehicle.
Drivingon Pavement
Driving the vehicle on paved surfaces can affect handling characteristics and increase tire wear.
If possible, avoid driving on paved surfaces. If unavoidable, drive slowly, travel short distances, and avoid sudden
turns or stops.
Drivingon PublicRoads
Driving this vehicle on public streets, roads or highways could result in a collision with another vehicle. Never drive this
vehicle on any public street, road, or highway, including dirt and gravel roads, unless they are designated for off road
use. Most areas prohibit the operation of this vehicle on public streets, roads, or highways and can result in traffic vio-
lations and fines.
Turning
Improper or careless turning can cause loss of traction, loss of control, accident, or rollover. Do not turn quickly or at
sharp angles. Do not turn at high speeds. Practice turning at slow speeds before attempting to turn at faster speeds.
DrivingUphill
Do not climb hills that are too steep for the vehicle or your driving abilities. Loss of vehicle control or rollover can result
from climbing hills incorrectly. Refer to Driving Uphill on page 25 for operational information.
DrivingDownhill
Inspect the terrain before descending a hill. Avoid driving across hills. Use the brake to limit speed and maintain con-
trol. Loss of vehicle control or rollover can result from driving downhill incorrectly. Refer to Driving Downhill on page 25
for operational information.
StallingonaHill
A rollover can result from stalling or rolling backward while climbing a hill. Drive uphill at a constant speed. See proce-
dure on page 26 for maintaining control of your vehicle if it stalls on a hill.
Tires
Operating the vehicle with the incorrect tires or with the incorrect or uneven tire pressure can cause loss of control or
an accident. Always use the size and type of tires specified for the vehicle. See Vehicle Specification for proper tire
type and size. Always maintain the correct tire pressures as specified in Tire Pressure on page 11.
• dizziness • vomiting
• intense headache • muscular twitching
• weakness and sleepiness • throbbing in temples

SAFETY
15
SlipperyTerrain
Driving on rough, wet, or loose terrain increases the risk of loss of traction or control and accident or rollover. Drive
slowly and use the correct turning procedures when operating on slippery surfaces.
Tires that have lost traction and then regain traction suddenly can cause loss of vehicle control or rollover.
Refer to Slippery Surfaces on page 25 for operational information.
HOTEXHAUSTSYSTEMS
Exhaust system components are very hot during and after use. To avoid burn injuries, do not touch hot exhaust sys-
tem components. Hot components can also cause a fire. Keep combustible materials away from the exhaust system.
Check for buildup around the exhaust system after driving through high and dry grass.
VEHICLE LIFTING
The vehicle must be on a firm and level surface for lifting. Remain constantly aware that the vehicle is not stable
during the lifting process. Do not get under a vehicle until you verify that it is stable on the jack stands. Never get
under a vehicle while it is on a jack only. Put wheel chocks in front of and behind the wheels that are not being lifted.
Do not allow anyone to remain or get on the vehicle at any time during the lifting process.
Read and comply with all warnings and follow the lifting procedures described on page 33.
VEHICLE MODIFICATION
Do not install any accessory not approved by the manufacturer. Do not modify the vehicle to increase the speed or
power. Any modifications or installation of accessories not approved by the manufacturer can create a safety hazard
and increase the risk of injury.
The warranty will be terminated if the vehicle is modified to increase vehicle speed or power.
The warranty may be terminated if the original (or equivalent) replacement parts are not installed on the vehicle.
The addition of some accessories can change the handling characteristics of the vehicle. Use only approved accesso-
ries, and familiarize yourself with their function and effect on the vehicle.
