Loading the Cargo Bed
Use the following guidelines when loading the cargo
bed and operating the machine:
• Observe the weight capacity of the machine and
limit the weight of the load that you carry in the
cargo bed as described in Specications ( page
16 ) and on the gross vehicle weight tag of the
machine.
Note: The load rating is specied for machine
operation on a level surface only .
• Reduce the weight of the load that you carry in the
cargo bed when operating the machine on hills
and rough terrain.
• Reduce the weight of the load that you carry when
the materials are tall (and have a high center of
gravity), such as a stack of bricks, landscaping
timbers, or fertilizer bags. Distribute the load as
low as possible to ensure that the load does not
reduce your ability to see behind the machine
when operating it.
• Keep loads centered by loading the cargo bed as
follows:
– Evenly position the weight in the cargo bed
from side to side.
Important: T ipping over is more likely to
occur if the cargo bed is loaded to 1 side.
– Evenly position the weight in the cargo bed
from front to back.
Important: Loss of steering control or the
machine may tip over if you position the
load behind the rear axle and the traction
on the front tires is reduced.
• Use extra caution when transporting oversized
loads in the cargo bed, particularly when you
cannot center the weight of the oversize load to
the cargo bed.
• Whenever possible, secure the load by binding it
to the cargo bed so that it does not shift.
• When transporting liquids, use caution when
driving the machine uphill or downhill, when
suddenly changing speed or stopping, or when
driving over rough surfaces.
The capacity of the cargo box is 0.37 m
3
(13 ft
3
).
The amount (volume) of material that you can place
in the bed without exceeding the load ratings of the
machine can vary greatly depending on the density
of the material.
Refer to the following table for load volume limits with
various materials:
