FOREWORD

This Operation & Maintenance Manual was written to give the owner / operator instructions on the safe operation and maintenance of the Bobcat utility vehicle. READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING YOUR BOBCAT UTILITY VEHICLE. If you have any questions, see your Bobcat dealer. This manual may illustrate options and accessories not installed on your Bobcat utility vehicle.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before Operation

• Carefully follow the operating and maintenance instructions in this manual. The Bobcat utility vehicle is highly maneuverable and compact.
• It is rugged and useful under a wide variety of conditions. This presents an operator with hazards associated with off road, rough terrain applications, common with Bobcat utility vehicle usage. This vehicle handles differently than other vehicles, such as motorcycles, golf cars or cars.
• If you fail to take proper precautions, a collision or rollover can occur quickly, even during routine maneuvers like turning, braking, driving over rough terrain and up and down hills or over obstacles. This can result in severe injury or death. This vehicle is intended for off road use only and should not be operated on public roads.
• Driving this vehicle in an aggressive manner can increase the risk of head injury and requires head protection. For these aggressive driving conditions, Bobcat Company recommends that all occupants wear a properly fitting Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) approved helmet.

Always follow these instructions:

• Fasten seat belts for occupant restraint before operating.
• Keep hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times.
• Travel at appropriate vehicle speeds depending on the type of terrain, visibility conditions, operating conditions and your operating experience.
• Wear eye protection.
• Wear other personal protective equipment such as a helmet or hard hat, face protection, hearing protection, safety boots or shoes, chemical suit, respirators and gloves as needed by work location and vehicle operation.
• NEVER attempt jumps or other stunts with the vehicle

This vehicle is an ADULT VEHICLE ONLY. NEVER operate this vehicle if you are under age 16 and NEVER operate without a valid drivers license.

• No person under the age of 12 may ride as a passenger in this vehicle. Any passenger must be able to comfortably reach the floor and hand holds. Never permit a guest to operate this vehicle unless the guest has read this manual and all safety signs (decals). Always inspect the vehicle before each use to make sure it is in safe operating condition.
• Always follow the inspection procedures described in this manual. The Bobcat utility vehicle has an internal combustion engine with resultant heat and exhaust.
• All exhaust gases can kill or cause illness so use the utility vehicle with adequate ventilation. The dealer explains the capabilities and restrictions of the Bobcat utility vehicle, attachment and accessories for each application.
• The dealer demonstrates the safe operation according to Bobcat instructional materials, which are also available to operators. The dealer can also identify unsafe modifications or use of unapproved attachments and accessories.

The following publications and training materials provide information on the safe use and maintenance of the Bobcat utility vehicle and attachments and accessories:

•  The Delivery Report is used to assure that complete instructions have been given to the new owner and that the utility vehicle, attachments and accessories are in safe operating condition.
• The Operation & Maintenance Manual delivered with the vehicle or attachment gives operating information as well as routine maintenance and service procedures. It is a part of the utility vehicle and can be stored in the storage compartment. Replacement Operation & Maintenance Manuals can be ordered from your Bobcat dealer.
• Utility vehicle signs (decals) instruct on the safe operation and care of your Bobcat vehicle, attachments and accessories. The signs and their locations are shown in the Operation & Maintenance Manual. Replacement signs are available from your Bobcat dealer.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT’D)
Safe Operation Is The Operator’s Responsibility

Operator must have instructions before operating the utility vehicle. Untrained operators can cause injury or death

IMPORTANT

This notice identifies procedures which must be followed to avoid damage to the utility vehicle

• The written instructions from Bobcat Company include the Delivery Report, Operation & Maintenance Manual, and utility vehicle signs (decals).
• Check the rules and regulations at your location. The rules may include an employer’s work safety requirements. Regulations may apply to local driving requirements.

Have Training with Actual Operation

• Operator training must consist of a demonstration and verbal instruction. This training is given by your Bobcat dealer before the product is delivered.
• The new operator must start in an area without bystanders and use all the controls until he or she can operate the vehicle, attachments and accessories safely under all conditions of the work area. Always fasten seat belt before operating.
• The utility vehicle Safety Video is available from your Bobcat dealer in English and Spanish. It provides information for safe vehicle operation.

Know the Work Conditions

•  Know the weight of the materials being handled. Never exceed the vehicle Load Capacities. Material which is very dense will be heavier than the same volume of less dense material. Reduce the size of the load if handling dense material.
• The operator must know any prohibited uses or work areas, for example, he or she needs to know about excessive slopes.
• Know the location of any underground lines. Call local utilities or the TOLL FREE phone number found in the Before Operation section of this manual.
• Wear tight fitting clothing. Always wear safety glasses when doing maintenance or service. Safety glasses, respiratory equipment and hearing protection are required for some work.
