BASIC GUIDE FOR SAFE USE
As a Rhino owner you are responsible for the
safe and proper operation of this vehicle.
Read this chapter and review the safety in-
structions in Chapter 2 before operating the
vehicle. Use these chapters and the labels on
the vehicle to instruct new operators and pas-
sengers. Do not allow anyone else to operate
the vehicle or ride as a passenger if you are
unsure that he/she is willing and able to follow
these instructions.
WARNING
Follow these instructions to reduce your
risk of an accident and to reduce the risk
of serious injury or death in the event of an
accident.
KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
This off-road vehicle will handle and maneu-
ver differently from cars, ATVs, go-carts, golf-
cars and grounds-keeping vehicles. The
Rhino has higher ground clearance and other features to handle rugged terrain, and, as a
result, can overturn in situations where some
vehicles may not. This would include vehicles
made primarily for pavement, roads, im-
proved paths, or grounds-keeping. If you do
not use care in maneuvering the Rhino, you
can cause it to roll over even on flat, open ar-
eas.

4. With the brake pedal applied, set theparking brake.
5. Block the front and rear wheels with
rocks or other objects.
Loading
The total weight of operator, passenger, ac-
cessories, cargo, trailer tongue weight, and
the vehicle itself must not exceed 907 kg
(2000 lb). Vehicle loading can affect handling.
See “Loading” on pages 6-9–6-10. Operation on different surfaces and
terrains
Go slowly and proceed with caution when op-
erating on an unfamiliar surface or terrain.
This vehicle may handle differently in certain
types of terrains or on certain surfaces. You
may come upon hidden rocks, bumps, or
holes without enough time to react. To avoid
loss of control or rollover, always be alert to
changing surfaces or terrain when operating
the vehicle.
The Rhino has higher ground clearance and
other features to handle rugged terrain, and
as a result, can overturn in situations where
some vehicles may not. Abrupt maneuvers or
aggressive driving can cause loss of control,
including rollovers – even on flat, open areas.
These rollovers can result in crushed limbs
and other serious injuries or death to drivers
or passengers.
