OPERATION

New Operator Driving Procedures

5. Drive slowly at first. On level surfaces, practice starting, stopping,

turning, maneuvering, using the throttle and brakes and driving in

reverse. Learn how the vehicle handles when making both left and

right turns at a slow speed.

6. Check for upper cab net interference. See page 39.
7. Increase speed only after mastering all maneuvers at a slow speed.
8. After you become skilled at making turns and begin to operate at

faster speeds, follow these precautions:

• Avoid sharp turns.
• Never turn while applying heavy throttle.
• Never make abrupt steering maneuvers.
• Operate at speeds appropriate for your skills, the conditions and

the terrain.

• DO NOT do power slides, “donuts”, jumps or other driving

stunts.
