Monitoring the
Battery-System Charge
Level
Refer to the display to determine the battery-system
charge level; refer to
Understanding the Low
Battery-Level Advisories
If the battery level becomes too low (i.e., below 5%),
a low-battery advisory appears on the display. When
you are operating at this battery percentage, drive the
machine to a designated battery-charging area and
charge the batteries; refer to
Batteries (page
27).
Stopping the Machine
Important:
When stopping the machine on
an incline, use the service brakes to stop the

machine in place. Using the accelerator to stall
the machine on the hill can overheat the motor or
drain the batteries.
1.
Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
2.
Slowly press the brake pedal to apply the service
brakes until the machine comes to a complete
stop.
Note:
The stopping distance may vary
depending on the machine load and speed.
