PRE-OPERATION AND DAILY SAFETY CHECKLIST
Each vehicle has been thoroughly inspected and adjusted at the factory; however, upon receiving your new vehicle(s), you should become familiar with the controls, indicators, and operation. Carefully inspect each vehicle to ensure that it is in proper working condition before accepting delivery.
Use the following list as a guide to inspect the vehicle. This list should be used daily and in conjunction with the Performance Inspection and the Periodic Service Schedule on page 29 to ensure that the vehicle is in proper working condition. Any problems should be corrected by a dealer/distributor or a trained technician.

•Safety belts: Visually inspect for cuts, fraying, and loose parts. See
•Tires: Check for proper tire pressure. Visually inspect tires for wear, damage, and proper inflation on a daily basis. See Vehicle Specifications on page 51.
•Battery: Check electrolyte to ensure it is at the proper level (Figure 40, Page 47). Check battery posts. Wires should be tight and free of corrosion, and battery should be fully charged.
