OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION
Read all of Manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
age, do not release service brake until
engine has started.
Do not hold vehicle on hill by using accelerator and
engine. This will cause premature and excessive
wear to drive train components.
To reduce the possibility of permanent damage to the
drive system, it is important to prevent excessive roll-
back when starting the vehicle on a hill.
Place left foot on service brake and release the park
brake. Depress accelerator with right foot and release
the service brake by lifting left foot.

COASTING

To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death from coasting at above recommended
speeds, limit speed with service brake.
On steep hills, it is possible for the vehicle to coast at
greater than normal speeds encountered on a flat sur-
face. To reduce the possible loss of vehicle control and
severe drivetrain damage, speeds should be limited to no
more than the maximum governed speed on level ground
(see GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS). Limit speed by
applying service brake.

FUEL

To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death from improper fuel handling:
Do not smoke near the fuel tank.
Do not refuel near open flame or electri-
cal items which could produce a spark.
Always handle gasoline in a well ventilat-
ed area.
Always wear eye protection to protect
against splashed fuel and fuel vapors.

The fuel tank is located under the seat on the passenger
side of the vehicle (Ref Fig. 12 on page 10). Fill the tank
with fresh, clean, automotive grade gasoline (Ref Fig. 39
on page 28). High altitude or heavy use/load applications
may benefit from higher octane gasoline.
Do not use gasoline which contains Methanol.
Some fuels, called oxygenated or reformulated gasoline,
are gasoline blended with alcohols or ethers. Excessive
amounts of these blends can damage the fuel system or
cause performance problems. If any undesirable operat-
ing symptoms occur, use gasoline with a lower percent-
age of alcohol or ether.
Use fresh regular grade unleaded fuel. Ethanol blend
fuels upto 10% are permissable

BATTERY

Excessive use of accessories may drain the battery
and leave insufficient reserve to start the vehicle.
The vehicle uses a combination starter/generator to both
start the engine and charge the battery. The engine will
not idle; therefore, the battery cannot be charged while
