cargo box. Do not attempt to
dump or unload the vehicle
while parked on an incline.

PARK.

5. Ensure that the cargo is posi-

tioned evenly or toward the
front of the cargo box.

WARNING! If the weight distribution on the box is located toward the rear of the
box when the release lever is pulled forward, the box may dump unexpectedly
and cause serious injury to the operator or bystanders. Never operate the dump
lever without ensuring that the load is positioned evenly or at the front of the
box.

WARNING! Operating the vehicle while the cargo box is raised could result in
severe injury. The box could close unexpectedly and cause injury to the driver or
passenger. The rear tires will also catch the rear of a raised box, damaging the
vehicle and creating hazardous driving conditions. Never operate this vehicle
with the cargo box in the raised position.
