OPERATION
Hauling Cargo
Overloading the vehicle or carrying or towing cargo improperly can alter vehicle
handling and may cause loss of control or brake instability. Always follow these
precautions when hauling cargo.
• Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle.
• Never carry cargo in the rear box when operating the vehicle in the 2-up mode
with a passenger.
• REDUCE SPEED AND ALLOW GREATER DISTANCES FOR BRAKING
WHEN HAULING CARGO OR TOWING. Use extreme caution when applying
brakes. Avoid situations that require backing downhill.
• When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed, cargo and towed
load to maintain stable driving conditions.
• DO NOT BLOCK THE FRONT HEADLIGHT BEAM when carrying loads on the
front rack.
• WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION in the cargo bed should be as far forward and as low
as possible. Carrying a high load raises the center of gravity and creates a less
stable operating condition. Reduce load weight when cargo is high. When
handling off-centered loads that cannot be centered, secure the load and
operate with extra caution.
• SECURE ALL LOADS BEFORE OPERATING. Unsecured loads may shift and
create unstable operating conditions, which could result in loss of control of the
vehicle. Always be sure that the cargo bed is lowered and latched before
operating the vehicle.
• USE EXTREME CAUTION when operating with loads extending beyond the
rack or cargo bed. Stability and maneuverability may be adversely affected,
causing the vehicle to overturn.
• BALANCE LOADS proportionally between the front rack and cargo bed, but do
not exceed the stated load capacity. Carrying a load on only the front rack or
cargo bed may cause an imbalanced condition and increases the possibility of
vehicle overturn.
• USE EXTREME CAUTION when applying brakes with a loaded vehicle.
• TOWING is approved OFF-ROAD ONLY. Operating a Quadricycle/trailer
combination on public roads is prohibited. Always attach a towed load to the
hitch point. Avoid towing on inclines.
• TOWING SPEED should never exceed 16 km/h. Never exceed 8 km/h when
towing loads in rough terrain, while cornering, or while ascending or
descending hills.
