12V Power Outlet The 12V power outlet is located on the right side of the dash panel. It is used for the convenience of plugging in accessories that require a power source with a maximum load of 5A at 12V. Auxiliary Switch Panel The auxiliary switch panel is located on the right hand side of the dash panel above the handhold. When adding accessories requiring switches, use this area of the dash panel to install the desired switches. Occupant Protective Structure (OPS) This utility vehicle is equipped with an Occupant Protection Structure (OPS) and seat belts. When used together they are effective in reducing crushing injuries to the operator and passenger in the event of an accidental rollover or tip-over. The safety provided by the OPS is minimized if the seat belt is not properly adjusted AND buckled. WARNING: Always wear the seat belt when operating the utility vehicle. Cargo Bed The cargo bed maximum capacity is 350lbs. The cargo bed may be tilted for dumping loads. Push forward on the cargo bed latch lever to unlock the bed and manually lift the cargo bed. See Figure 3-1. NOTE: Access to the engine is achieved by raising the cargo bed. IMPORTANT: Do not exceed the vehicle's Total PayLoad Capacity of 850 lb (385 kg), which includes driver, passenger, accessories, tongue load and cargo. Do not exceed 350 lb (158 kg) in the cargo bed. Use the following guidelines when using a utility vehicle equipped with OPS: 1. Be aware of overhead clearances in the area of operation. Check for clearance of door (or gate) openings and other overhead objects such as utility lines and tree branches. Overhead objects could catch the OPS and upset the utility vehicle. 2. Do not modify the OPS by drilling holes for, or welding accessories to the structure. 3. Do not use the OPS to pull objects with the utility vehicle. Use ONLY the utility vehicle hitch for pulling. 4. Do not operate the utility vehicle without the OPS and do not remove the OPS. 5. In the event of an accident, have the OPS carefully inspected and, if necessary, replaced by your Cub Cadet dealer. Do not attempt to repair the OPS. Cup Holders The cup holders are located on top of the dash panel on both the left and right hand sides. WARNING: Never operate this vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Doing so can result in serious personal injury or death. Section 3 - Controls and Features 9
