DEALER SETUP AND CHECKLIST FOR
SNAPPER GROUNDS CRUISER UTILITY VEHICLE
INTRODUCTION: These instructions cover the setup of the Snapper Grounds Cruiser utility vehicle. Complete
each step carefully. A checklist has been provided. It is very important to verify and record each item on the
list prior to retail. The dry weight of the machine you are about to setup is 1,230 lb. It is strongly recommended
that you use an overhead hoist when lifting the machine. The capacity of the device used for lifting must
exceed the weight of the machine. DO NOT work on the machine until properly blocked and secured to prevent
it from falling. If an overhead hoist is not available, you may have to remove boards from the crate bottom to
gain access with floor type jacks.
WARNING
DO NOT attempt any adjustments, maintenance or
service with the engine running. STOP engine. Set
park brake. Shift transmission to neutral and
remove key. Remove spark plug wire from spark
plug and secure wire away from spark plug. Engine
and components are HOT. Avoid serious burns,
allow all parts to cool before working on machine.

The machine is securely attached to the crate bottom at
each wheel location. See Figure 1.1. The four steel
plates must be removed before lifting the machine. The
device used to lift the machine must have a capacity
