Owner’s Manual and Service Guide
Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
Establish the acceptable stopping distance by testing a new
or ‘known to be good’ vehicle and recording the stopping
location or stopping distance. For fleets of vehicles, several
vehicles should be tested when new and the range of
stopping locations or distances recorded.
Over time, a subtle loss of performance may
take place; therefore, it is important to establish
the standard with a new vehicle.
Drive the vehicle at maximum speed on a flat, dry, clean,
paved surface (Ref. Fig. 30 on page 18). Quickly depress
the brake pedal to latch the parking brake at the line or
marker in the test area and remove foot from pedal. The
vehicle should stop aggressively. The wheel brakes may or
may not lock. Observe the vehicle stopping location or
measure the vehicle stopping distance from the point at
which the brakes were latched. The vehicle should stop
within the ‘normal’ range of stopping distances. If the vehicle
stops more than 4 ft. (1.2 m) beyond the acceptable
stopping distance or pulls to one side, the vehicle has failed
the test and should be tested again.
If the vehicle fails the second test, it should immediately be
removed from service. The vehicle must be inspected by a
qualified mechanic who should refer to the
TROUBLESHOOTING section in the Technicain’s Repair
and Service Manual.
AIR INTAKE AND COOLING FINS
To prevent possible burns,
engine parts should be
kept clean to reduce risk of
overheating and ignition of
accumulated debris.
After every off road use, allow to cool and then check for a
build up of dirt and debris in the air intake and cooling fins.
Dirt and debris may clog the engine’s air cooling system.
Clean areas shown to prevent engine damage (Ref. Fig. 31
on page 18) (Ref. Fig. 32 on page 19). Keep linkages,
springs and controls clean. Keep area around muffler free of
any combustible material.
