Carrying Loads
Any load carried on the DRX2’s carrying rack(s) will affect the stability and
control of the DRX2. For this reason, do not exceed the load limits (50KG)
of the DRX2 manufacturer. Always make sure the load is secured and
cannot interfere with your proper control. Always be aware that the “load”
may slide or fall off and create an accident. Avoid loads that may protrude
sideways and get snagged or caught in brush or other obstacles. Avoid
covering and obstructing the headlamp or taillights with the cargo. Avoid
overloading, it will affect the stability and your control of the DRX2.
Working with your DRX2
Your DRX2 can help you perform a number of different LIGHT tasks
ranging from snow removal to pulling wood or carrying cargo. A variety of
accessories are available from your DRX2 Dealer. However, always respect
the load and capacities of the DRX2. (
the tow ball cannot pull over 500kg,
the weight to pull by electric winch is subject to its chosen type)
Overloading
of the DRX2 can overstress the components and cause failure. To prevent
possible injury, it is equally important to follow the instructions and warnings
that accompany the accessory. Avoid any physical exertion through lifting or
pulling of heavy loads or man powering the DRX2. (Continue to read
RECREATIONAL DRIVING below).
Recreational Driving
Respect the rights and limitations of others. Stay away from areas
designated for other types of off road use. This includes snowmobile trails,
equestrian trails, cross country ski trails, mountain bike trails etc. Never
assume there are no other users on the trail. Always stay to the complete
right of the trail and do not zig zag to one side of the trail then the other. Be
prepared to leave the side if another trail user appears in front of you.
Join a local DRX2 club. They will provide you with a map and advice or
inform you where you can drive. If a club does not exist in your area, help
start one. Group driving and club activities provide a pleasurable, social
experience. Always keep a safe distance from other drivers. Your judgment
of speed, terrain conditions, weather, mechanical condition of your DRX2
and the “trust in judgment” you have in others around you will help you
make a better choice of appropriate safe distance. DRX2, like any other
vehicle, cannot stop “on a dime”. Before you drive, tell someone where you
are planning to travel and your expected time of return. Never consume
alcohol or drugs before or while driving! Depending on the length of your
drive, carry additional tools or emergency equipment. Find out where you
can get additional gasoline and oil. Be prepared for the possible conditions
you may encounter. An emergency first aid kit should always be a
consideration.
