Carrying Loads
Important Safeguards
To reduce risk of injury or machine damage when carrying loads, read
and follow the warnings listed below:
S
REDUCE SPEED AND ALLOW GREATER DISTANCE
FOR BRAKING WHEN CARRYING CARGO.
S CARGO WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION should be 1/3 on the
front rack and 2/3 on the rear rack. When operating over
rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo to maintain
stable driving conditions. Carrying loads on one rack only
increases the possibility of vehicle tip over.
S HEAVY LOADS CAN CAUSE BRAKING AND CONTROL
PROBLEMS. Use extreme caution when applying brakes
with a loaded vehicle. Avoid terrain or situations which may
require backing downhill.
S ALL LOADS MUST BE SECURED BEFORE MOVING
VEHICLE. Unsecured loads can create unstable operating
conditions, which could result in loss of control of the ve-
hicle.
Correct loading of this vehicle is necessary to maintain proper
stability and operating characteristics. Overloading or incorrect
positioning of the load affects the vehicle’s turning, stopping
distance and stability. Failure to follow loading requirements
could cause severe injury or death.
