Safety
Roading
* Match speed to road conditions.
* Yield the right of way when required. Obey the rules of the road.
* Stay as close to the side of the road as possible. Pass other equipment
only when the road is clear and enough room / space to pass and
reserve power is available.
* Stop at appropriate intervals to inspect the vehicle and allow the tyres
to cool. Tyre air pressure will rise during operation. Do not reduce tyre
pressure. Excess speed will cause tyres to heat up. Reduce your travel
speed, not tyre pressure.
* Use accessory lights and devices at night or in poor visibility. Carry a
flare kit. Do not overdrive your headlights.
