Moving on Slopes

SLOPES ARE A MAJOR FACTOR RELATED TO SLIP-AND-FALL ACCIDENTS, WHICH CAN RESULT IN SEVERE INJURY. ALL SLOPES REQUIRE CAUTION. IF YOU FEEL UNEASY ON A SLOPE, DO NOT DRIVE ON IT.

DO:

Use caution on slopes. Whenever possible, move up and down the slope at an angle.

Exercise caution when changing directions on slopes.

Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, or any other potential object that your Cart could hit.

Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Be careful on uneven terrain to avoid overturning your Cart. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

When moving down slopes, always keep your Cart in low gear and moving. The friction of the motor helps you keep better control of your Cart.

Use caution when carrying heavy loads up slopes. If your Cart is overloaded, the safety fuse may trip and allow the Cart to roll back toward you, causing severe injury.

DO NOT:

Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly and gradually.

Do not move near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The Cart could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch or if an edge caves in.

Do not park your Cart on hills or steep slopes.

Servicing Your Cart

ALTERING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM COULD CAUSE A FIRE RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY. DON’T DO IT.

Using components other than those supplied could cause overheating, fire, or explosion.

Never make adjustments or repairs with the motor running.

Keep all nuts and bolts tight, and keep the equipment in good condition.

Keep your Cart’s wheels free of grass, leaves, or other debris build-up.

Keep your Cart clean and dry. Use a damp cloth or sponge with a mild soap or detergent when cleaning your Cart. Never use gasoline, solvents, or other petroleum-based or solvent-based products when cleaning.

Periodically inspect the wire connector. If it is damaged in any way, do not use your Cart until the wire connector has been replaced or repaired.

When not in use, store your Cart indoors in a dry place.
