WARNING:
 In case a tire is punctured while driving, securely
hold the steering wheel and slowly reduce the drive
speed.
If the service brake is suddenly applied while a tire
is punctured, steering may lose control, possibly
creating an accident. Never apply the brake quickly if
a tire is punctured.
 Never mount or dismount a moving machine. Never
allow any personnel other than the operator to ride
on the machine when operating.
 Even after break-in is complete, avoid running the engine
at high RPM's (min

 If any abnormal condition such as an abnormal
noise, vibration, or smell is noticed while operating,
immediately stop the engine and inspect the machine for

 Avoid using sudden steering or braking as much as
possible because your machine and other machines may
become involved in a hazardous condition.
