Do NOT use an Argo on water when equipped with a
snow plow. Do NOT use an Argo 6x6 in water when
equipped with a ROPS. The increased weight of the
snow plow out front or the top-heavy weight of the ROPS
on the 6x6 will make the Argo unstable and could cause
the vehicle to capsize, causing injury or drowning to
the driver and passengers.
1.5 REAR SEATS - 8 WHEEL MODELS
Argo 8 wheel models are fitted with “quick-release” rear seats.
Removal
1. Grasp the inner edge of the rear seat at both ends.
2. Lift the inner edge of the rear seat upwards until both plas-
tic bumpers are clear of the upper body.
3. Using an upward motion, pull the seat toward the centre of
the rear compartment.
4. Remove the seat.
Installation
1. Place the rear seat over the seat mounting holes in the
upper body. Insert the large seat washers through the holes.
2. Using downward pressure, slide the seat towards the out-
side of the vehicle to lock it in place.
