Load Distribution
WARNING
When carrying cargo or towing a trailer, remember that load weight will in-
crease braking distances. Failure to allow for increased braking distance
may result in accident and injury.

2. Always operate the vehicle with extreme care, especially when hauling or tow-
ing loads.
3. Slow down and drive in D-1 Gear only.
4. The cargo box dump latch must be securely latched before loading and operat-
ing. Unintentional box tilting can result if weight is placed in the rear of the box
and the latch is not secured.
5. Do not place loads on the cab frame
WARNING: Never operate this vehicle with the cargo box in the raised position.
The cargo box could close unexpectedly while driving, severely injuring the driver
or passenger. The rear tires can catch the rear of the box, damaging the vehicle
and creating hazardous driving conditions.
