WARNING
NEVER carry fuel or other flammable liquids on this vehicle. Failure to follow
this instruction could lead to serious burn injuries or death.
Overloading the vehicle or carrying cargo improperly can alter vehicle handling
and may cause loss of control or brake instability. Always follow these
precautions when hauling cargo:
Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle.
REDUCE SPEED AND ALLOW GREATER DISTANCES FOR BRAKING

NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM WEIGHT CAPACITY of the vehicle. When
determining the weight you are adding to the vehicle, include the weight of the
operator, passengers, accessories and loads in the rack or box. The combined
weight of these items must not exceed the maximum weight capacity.
Always load the cargo box with the load as far forward and as low as possible.
When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo to maintain
stable driving conditions.
Always operate the vehicle with extreme care when hauling cargo. Slow down
and drive in the lowest gear available.

contact with moving components. Never allow a passenger to ride in the cargo
box. A passenger must always be seated in a passenger seat with seat belt
secured.
