OPERATING PROCEDURES

Read all of SAFETY and this section before attempting any procedure. Pay particular attention to Notices, Cautions, Warnings and Dangers.

Owner’s Guide

Load Bed

To reduce the possibility of severe injury or death, read, understand and follow the warning label

affixed to the front of the load bed.

Never fill a gas can in the bed of a vehicle. Static discharge could ignite gasoline vapor and cause

an explosion.

A load bed warning label is affixed to the front

of the bed. For safe operation of the vehicle,

this label must be understood and adhered to.
See the warning label for maximum load.The

load must be positioned in the bed as far for-

ward as possible, distributed in such a way

that its center of gravity not be higher than height noted on label, and properly secured. Failure to follow these instruc-

tions may result in severe injury, damage the vehicle and/or cause the vehicle to tip over.
Use extra care when operating vehicle with a load. Do not permit anyone to ride in the bed. Do not drive the vehicle

with the load bed raised or with the tailgate unsupported. When using a load bed, be sure to avoid backing up to the

edge of a drop off, such as a loading dock or ravine. A misjudgment of distance or an unstable surface could result in

the vehicle falling backwards.
Always place a gas can on the ground before filling. Never fill a gas can in the bed of the vehicle. Static electricity is

built up during the fueling process and could discharge, causing the gasoline vapor to ignite.

Manual Lift Operation

Make sure the bed is not released during raising or lowering

procedure. Severe injury could result if bed is inadvertently

released and falls on fingers or other body parts.

To raise bed, pull upward on handle and bed until it stops in the tilted position.
To lower bed, grasp the bed lift handle and lower bed to the rest position. Be

sure hands are clear of bed.

Electric Lift Operation

Use caution while operating the electric lift to ensure clothing is

not caught during lifting or lowering procedure. Severe injury

could result if bed is lowered, trapping fingers or other body

parts.

Ensure no one is behind the vehicle before operating electric lift.
Move the electric lift toggle switch up to raise the load bed; down to lower.
