DANGER In certain conditions, fuel is extremely flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion from fuel can burn you and others and can damage property. • Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when the engine is cold. Wipe up any fuel that spills. • Never fill the fuel tank inside an enclosed trailer. • Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add fuel to the fuel tank until the level is 1 inch (25 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck. This empty space in the tank allows fuel to expand.
Stopping the Machine Loading the Cargo Box Important: When stopping the machine on an incline, use the service brakes to stop the machine and set the parking brake to hold the machine in place. Using the accelerator to stall the machine on the hill can damage the machine.
The capacity of the cargo box is 0.37 m3 (13 ft3). The amount (volume) of material that can be placed in the box without exceeding the load ratings of the machine can vary greatly depending on the density of the material. For example, a level box of wet sand weighs approximately 680 kg (1500 lb), which exceeds the load rating by 113 kg (250 lb). But a level box of wood weighs 295 kg (650 lb), which is under the load rating.
For example, if the GTW = 181.5 kg (400 lb) then the maximum cargo load = 5678 kg (1250 lb) To provide adequate braking and traction, always load the cargo box when trailering. Do not exceed the GTW or GVW limits. Avoid parking a machine with a trailer on a hill. If you must park on a hill, set the parking brake and block the tires of the trailer.
