Check brake pedal free play and operation. Check brake fluid level and for leaks. Recommended fluid: DOT 4.
Check engine oil level. Change oil and filter at specified intervals. Use recommended oil type and quantity.
Check coolant level in reservoir when engine is cold. Add coolant or distilled water if low. Change coolant every two years.
Ensure control cables work smoothly in cold weather. Apply brake, shift to neutral. Check neutral indicator light.
Refer to cold start section. Do not use starter. Press accelerator pedal slightly.
Avoid jump-starting. Remove and charge battery instead. If necessary, connect cables correctly, positive to positive, negative to vehicle ground.
Warm up engine before starting off to maximize engine life. Avoid hard acceleration with cold engine.
Stop vehicle, apply brake, shift lever. Check for people/obstacles before backing. Press accelerator gradually.
Avoid continuous operation above half throttle. Allow 5-10 min cooling after each hour. Vary speed. Do not operate at fixed throttle.
Avoid prolonged operation above 3/4 throttle. Rev freely but do not use full throttle.

Familiarize with performance characteristics, controls, and safety info. Vehicle designed for operator and one passenger. Always wear seat belts. Never carry passengers in cargo bed.
Practice in a large, flat area. Practice controls: accelerator, brakes, steering, drive select lever. Drive slowly first.
Vehicle steers easier in 2WD than 4WD. Steering takes most effort in 4WD with diff. lock. Avoid sharp, high-speed turns; risk of rollover.
Braking ability affected by terrain. Gradual braking is more effective. Allow greater braking distance on rough/loose surfaces.
Check terrain carefully before descending. Drive straight downhill. Avoid sharp angles. Choose path carefully. Use engine braking.
Store manual in vinyl bag. Keep tool kit and tire pressure gauge near battery. Manual provides info for maintenance and minor repairs.
Important engine component. Inspect for ideal tan color. Periodically remove and inspect due to heat/deposits.
Clean intake duct filter element. Remove grill, then filter element. Tap to remove dust, blow with compressed air.
Check all chassis fittings and fasteners. Correct if necessary.
