BODY AND CHASSISBefore each use, visually inspect thePTV body and chassis for damagedand/or missing parts.

STARTING1. With the parking brake applied,

turn the drive select lever to “F”for forward, or “R” for reverse.

Do not shift from “F” (forward) to“R” (reverse) while the PTV ismoving. Transmission damagecan result.

2. Turn the main switch to “ON.”

Do not depress the acceleratorpedal when turning on the mainswitch or the PTV may suddenlystart moving. Death or seriouspersonal injury can result fromfailing to comply with the safetyinstructions in this manual.

3. Check that your path is clear inthe direction you plan to go, andslowly depress the acceleratorpedal. The PTV will start to move.

Gasoline and its vapors are highlyflammable and explosive. Death orserious personal injury can resultfrom failing to comply with thesafety instructions in this manual.

l Do not smoke when drainingfuel and keep away from sparks,flames, or other sources ofignition.

l Stop engine and allow it to coolfor several minutes beforedraining fuel.

l Drain fuel in a well-ventilatedarea.

l Take care not to spill gasoline. If gasoline spills, wipe it upimmediately with dry rags.Always dispose of gasoline-soaked rags properly.

l Tighten the filler cap securelyafter checking fuel level to avoidleaking.

l If you inhale a lot of gasolinevapor, or get gasoline in youreyes, get immediate medicalattention.

l If any gasoline gets on yourskin, immediately wash withsoap and water. Changeclothing if gasoline spills on it toavoid potential fire hazard.

Fill up the fuel tank with new fuel andadd recommended Yamalube FuelStabilizer and Conditioner per theinstructions listed on the container.Operate the vehicle for at least 5minutes to distribute the treated fuelthrough the fuel system.

Specified amount:

7.5 cc of stabilizer for each liter offuel (1 oz. of stabilizer for each gallon of fuel)

TIPUse of fuel stabilizer and conditionereliminates the need to drain the fuelsystem. Consult a Yamaha dealer ifthe fuel system needs to be drainedinstead.

Perform the following preparationswhen storing your PTV for extendedperiods of time:

Yamaha Golf-Car Company doesnot approve the use of high-pressure washers to clean theproducts they manufacture. Doingso may damage the finish on thebody or result in doing otherdamage not covered by warranty.
