If you must cross, do it at a point where banks are not steep and proceed at a slow and steady speed. Do not travel in water that is higher than the floor board. Water higher than this can damage the engine stalling the vehicle. However, intermittent stream crossings where depth of water briefly comes into contact with bottom of engine is acceptable. See "Going Out on the Trail" Note 7 on page 19.
Front bumper, brush guards and cargo box are not
designed as pusher bars. Do not attempt to push other vehicles or implements or damage may result.
When refuelinguse aULapprovednon-metalliccontainer
that has no screen or filter. Set the container on the ground before fueling to eliminate staticdischarge and do not use Methanol fuel.

Driving Conditions

Terrains vary creating different driving situations. The following are circumstances you might encounter and suggestions onhow to operate the Gondo safely. Always approach eachnew situation with extremecaution until you have become experienced in handling your vehicle.
We recommend for your safetyand the safety of others that you allowonly operatorsexperienced in driving a standardtransmission,understand all potentialdangersof operatingthisvehicle,has studiedthis manual, viewedthe video safety tapesupplied with this vehicle and has received actual hands-on instructions from an experienced operator.
Sandy Terrain
Tires withhigh air pressure perform better in loose sand. Also,stayin low gear to avoidspinningthewheels.Always maintainvehiclecontrol,don’tmakesharpturnsandavoid hard brakingwhen possible.
Muddy Terrain
Better tractionis achieved by accelerating the vehicle slowly to avoid spinning the wheels. Making sharp turns and hardbraking can cause the vehicle to skid out of control. Letup on the accelerator pedal and stop when skidding outof control.
Clean off mud residue stuck to rotatingdriveshafts and to the tiresas quickly as possible.Mud clinging to rotating parts causes and imbalance that can damage vehicle components.Alsocleanthebrakedrums of mud to reduce premature brake wear.
Watery Terrain
Always determine the depth of water before driving through it.Do not drive through water that ishigher than the bottomof the floor board. Always enter the water slowly and continue traveling slowly through the water to minimizesplashing. The vehiclecould stall iftheelectrical system getswet. Never allow water to get uparound the engine.A wet engine is likelyto stallor becomedamaged.
Test the brakes for stoppingcapabilities oncethrough the water.Allow the brakestodry beforeproceedingif braking capabilities arereduced. Brakescan be dried faster by driving the vehicleslowly on a levelsurfacewhile applying light pressureto the brake pedal.
Snowy and icy Terrain
Like muddy terrain, accelerate the vehicle slowlyto avoid spinning thewheels. Avoid making sharp turns andhard braking. Letup on the accelerator pedal and stopwhen skidding outof control. Always maintaina steady slow speed allowing time to slow down and stop. Remember slicksurfacesrequiremore time toslow down, make turns and stops.
Uneven Terrain
The Gondo’s centerarticulating steering enables the four driving wheels to maintain contact in various uneven terrainsituations.Becauseof this, the vehicleiscapableof maneuvering over rough surfaces, up and down steep inclines. Avoid operatingon excessively steep hills and especially onhills that are steeper than15 degrees.
Climbing Steep Hills
Alwaysapproach a steep hill straight on in 1st(lowgear)to reduce enginestrain and minimize stalling. Continue straightupthe hill in low gear moving rightorleftonly to go around obstacles. Do not attempt to turn the vehicle around during a steep climb. If thevehiclestalls or should youdecide to stopthe climb,place vehicle inreverse gear andbackdownthe hill slowly and as straight aspossibleto a safe location. If needed,apply the brakes very lightly to assist slowing downvehicle’sdescent. Hard braking can cause totalloss of control and arollover situation. Don’t depress theclutch while backing down except when bringing the vehicle to a complete stop.
Maximum traction and control is achieved whiletraveling upa steep incline in1st gearat thelowest possible speed. Also traveling slowly allows more time to correct a dangerous situation.

Descending Steep Hills
!
WARNING
Do not descend a steep hill with rear cargo box removed. Dangerous forward weight distribution is created.
Descend mosthills straight down in 1st gear.When necessary, use steady pressure on the brakes without locking them up. Hard braking can cause total loss of control anda rollover situation.
Always consider ground conditions and load distributions as outlinedbelow before descending a steep hill:
Is the ground surface wet or dry? Wet surfaces can
result inloss of control and shouldnot be attempted.
Is the groundsurface firmorloose? Loose surfaces can
result inloss of control and shouldnot be attempted.
Is theterrain fairly even or is it eroded and uneven with
holes andboulders? Surfaces that are notfairly even canresult in loss of controland shouldnot be attempted.
Can the descent be made fairly straight or will you be
required toturn to a degree thatis approaching cross­hill travelmaking the vehicle subject toimbalance and turning over.
Consider the vehicle’s center ofgravity. Isit frontheavy,
loaded highwith cargo and is therea passenger along adding weight over the frontaxle? The rear axle should have sufficientweight overit tocounter balanceweight distributedoverthefrontaxle.A vehicle with poor center of gravityis subject to flipping forwardend over end.
Is the vehicle approaching maximum load rating
capacity. Is thevehicletotal loaded weightapproaching maximum ratedgross weight? Too much weightcan reduce operator’sability to brake and controlthe vehicle.
Is the vehicle towing a trailer and if so is the trailer
carryingaloadapproachinggrossweightoftheGondo? Again,toomuchtrailer weight can reduce the operator’s ability tobrake and control the vehicle.
Traverse Traveling on Steep Hills
Cross asteep slope only if noother alternative exists. When crossing,consider ground conditions and load distributions outlined in "DescendingSteep Hills" onpage
18. Make certain thatthe weighton the uphill side ofthe vehicle is equal toor heavierthan the weight on the downhill side of the vehicle. Crossin 1st gear and if your vehicle starts to tip over,turn the vehicle down hillquickly to regainstability and control.
Pulling Loads
The Gondois capable of pulling a load weighing many times morethan its own weight. Because of thisit is important thatyouknowthevehicle’scapabilityandhow to operateitinawaythat willnotdamagethevehicleorinjure yourself or others. Always consider the following:
Does the loadexceed therecommendtowingcapacity?
Too muchweight will push the vehiclearound and hinder itsstopping capabilities.
Is the load front heavy placing too much weight on the
hitch?Excessive hitch weight will makethe front wheels light onthe ground causing you toloose steering and traction capabilities.
What type ofterrainis the loadbeingpulled over? Isthe
groundsoft,wet,dry or inclined. Any of these can hinder vehicle control.See "Descending Steep Hills" onpage 18 whenconsidering type of terrain.
When towing always start in1st gear and shift toa higher gear onlyif thevehicle hassufficient power. Do not travel ina gear that cannotcontrolthe load. Heavy loads should be towed in1st or 2nd gear dependingon their ability to hold theload backfrom pushing the vehicle when letting up onthe accelerator pedal. Remember, the heavier the load thelonger it takes forthe brakesto stop the vehicle.

Towing the Gondo

The Gondoshould be loaded on atrailer for towing. However, it can be towed behind a tractor or another vehicle for a short distanceto retrieve it from an area where atrailer won’tgo.
IMPORTANT: Owner assumes all responsibility and liability resulting from towing the Gondo.
IMPORTANT: Donot tow the Gondo atspeeds o ver 5 mph. Higher speeds may result in loss of control and damage to the Gondo, vehicle towing the Gondo and personnel.
Towing Without a Trailer
Thefollowingprecautions shouldbe followedwhentowing the Gondobehind a tractor or another vehicle:
Approved tow chain or rope must besecurely attached
to theGondo at a location thatwill not damage the vehicle orcome loose from the vehicle.
The gear selector must be placed in neutral position.
The park brake must be off.
Someone must be steering the vehicle while it is being
towed forit to track properly.
Whenpossible, the engine should be running to operate
thepowersteering.Ifthe engine will not run,thesteering will bevery heavy and will eventuallyquit as oil is bled from itssteering sector.
Do nottow the Gondo at speedsover 5 mph.Higher
speeds mayresult inloss of control and damage to the Gondo, vehicletowing the Gondo and personnel.
Donottowanothertrailerorvehiclebehind a Gondo that
is beingtowed.
Do not tow the Gondo on roadways or across open
areas accessible witha trailer. Instead,load the vehicle onto atrailer for towing.

Towing Loaded on a Trailer
The Gondomay bedriven or winched onto a trailer.The following precautions should be followedwhen loading and towing the Gondo on a trailer:
Always make certain loading ramps are capable of
supporting the Gondo’s weight, properly spaced forthe Gondo wheels and secured tothe trailerbefore loading the Gondo.
Twopeopleshouldbepresentwhenloadingthevehicle.
One stands clearofthe Gondo ashe guides thevehicle up theramps and onto the trailer.The other sits in the Gondo andsteers the vehicle as itis being loaded.
Drive or winch vehicle onto the trailer slowly to prevent
accidents.
Once loaded, turnthe switchkeyoff, set parkbrake and
place transmissionin 1st gear.
Properly secure the vehicleat itsfour cornersto thefour
corners ofthe trailer with tie downchains or other approved tiedowns. Tie downs must bedesigned to withstand forces inducedintothem during acceleration, making turnsand applying brakes.
Always tow at a speed where the driver is in control of
his vehicleat all times.
Always allow enough traveling distance to slow down
and stop.The Gondo’s added weight tothe trailer will require additionaltime and distance to slowdown.
Slow down when turning to prevent loss of control and
rollovers.
Do not allowanyone to ridein the Gondowhile towing it
on atrailer.

Obey all state and local laws for towing. Traveling Tips From the Trail Masters

At LandPride we want you to get maximum working and recreational enjoyment outof yourutility vehiclewhether you are using oneof our All-Terrain Runaboutsor one of our terrainhugging Gondo utility trucks. If your work projectorrecreationaladventureis going to takeyouonan extended ride deep into the wilderness orway out on the prairie, you’ll needto seriously consider some ofthe following tips from experienced pros about safety, gear, clothing, suppliesand driving techniques.
Preparation and Planning
Do acomplete equipment check as follows:
1. Make sure youhaveplenty of fuel and oilto make the trip and then some.
2. Make sure your tires have proper inflation, your lug bolts are tightandthat you havea spare andthetools to change, repairand inflate atire. Consider addinga puncture sealantto your tires as a preventative measure.
3. Check for any loose or missing parts and definitely makethose needed repairsbeforegoinganywhere.It is especiallyimportant that you checksteering, braking, throttle, electrical and engine components thoroughly.
Plan Your Route
1. Plan your route,destination and rendezvous points before starting out.
2. Don’t goit alone if at allpossible. Takingsomeone elsealongreducesthepotentialforloss of lifeormajor injury to inclement weather,animal attacks, or accidents. Besides, it’smore fun when you have someone toshare the adventure with.
3. Obtain trailor area maps of your travel routes to and from your destination. Communicate your travelplans to responsible friends and or proper authorities. Plan rendezvous points at conspicuouslandmarks along yourroutejustincaseyourunintounexpectedtrouble on thetrail.
4. Make sure you take a weather radio andtwo-way communication devices such as cell phones or long range-two way radios. It is also good to have ground flares, a flare gun, a smoke canister, emergency strobe light,a reflecting mirror, matchesfor asignal fire anda compass.
Plan Your Gear
1. Check the shortand longrangeweather forecast and take protective gear and clothing tocover all contingencies. It doesn’t have to snow for you tofall victim tohypothermia or exposure. Take or wear appropriate eye and headprotection, gloves, boots, a long sleeve shirt, longpants, a jacket, rain gear, dry socks and a fullchange of dry clothing.
2. Plan your gear and gear up for the best and worst of environmental conditions.
3. Packa first aid kit, sunblocker, lip balm, water, insect repellent, personal medications, tarp or tent, flash light, survival knife, binoculars, camera, tool kit, rope, duct tape, tow strap, winch or come-along, eating, utensils, cooking utensils and high energy trail food.
4. Tie and lash down your gear and supplies securely. Keepthe bulk of the weight centered and mounted as low as possible on the vehicle in order to maintain a lowcenter of gravityforsafeand stable off-road travel.
Going Out on the Trail
1. Take it all in when hitting the trail but do it safely!
2. Make sure you brief your passenger on proper safety procedures like keeping hands, arms, feet and other bodily appendages inside the vehicle. Passengers shouldonly be transportedinfactory supplied seating.

4. Avoidoperating on excessively steep hills and especially on hills that are steeper than 15 degrees. Avoidcrossing slopes if possible and don’t make sharp uphill steering corrections or a rollover could result. If your vehicle starts to tip over on a slope turn the front wheels quickly down hill to regain stability andcontrol.The best waytoclimbmost hills is to drive straight up while maintaining a steady ground speed and constant engine rpm. The best way to descend mosthillsisstraightdownwhile using steady pressure on the brakes without locking them up. Locking up the brakes in a steep downhill situation can result in loss oftraction,steering and control. When you must cross a slope on soft terrain, keep the front wheels turned slightly uphill and maintain a constant speed and a straight line of travel.
5. Driving too fast, being inattentive and turning too sharplyonslipperysurfacescanresultin rolloversand accidents almost quicker than any other ground condition we know of. Snow cover, wet trails, loose graveland frozen ground can all contribute to this dangerous condition. In these conditions maintain sharpfocusonthetrailahead. Don’t make sharp turns and avoid the need for hard braking if at all possible. Slow down and stop If you do start to slide.
6. Avoidpaved surfaces. Land Pride vehicles are designed exclusively for off-road use only.We understand that occasionally operators have to cross publicroads or right of ways to gain access to work or recreationsites,butdon’tgetinthewayof fastertraffic and cross quickly and safely.
7. The Gondo is capable of crossing intermittent streams where the depth of the water briefly comes intocontactwiththebottomofthefloorboards,butyou must keep these considerations in mind; You must know how deep the water is and the strength of the current. Cross where you have a gradual incline for entry and exit and the bottomis fairly clean and free of obstacles. Maintain a slow steady speed disturbing the stream bed as little as possible. If you submerge the engine, you will lose forward momentum and power. If you submerge the engine or the whole vehicle,donotattempttostart the vehiclebuttakeit to your nearest dealer immediately. After intermittent stream or shallow water crossings, dry out the brake linings by slightly accelerating the engine rpm while riding the brakes momentarily until full drive power and braking are restored.
8. Backing up in an off-road situation might seem a simplethingtodotoanovice,buthavingto back down a hill is a very dangerous situation. If you are on level ground always look behind you and back up slowly.If you find yourself having to back down a hill, apply the brakes very lightly. Hard braking can cause total loss of control and a rollover situation. Try to back straight down the hill without turning. Turning in this situation can also cause a rollover.
9. Wheneverpossible, park your vehicle on a level surface with the transmission in gear, set the park brakeand remove the key. If you do have to park on a hillside make to sure chock the rear wheels on the downhill side to prevent a roll away. It’s a good idea to keep your spare key stashed separately.
10. Never operate a vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol. When you’re driving off-road vehicles you need to keep your senses keen and capable of quick reaction, sharp perception and good balance.
11. Workingorrecreationinthedeepwilderness or on the prairies can be personally rewarding and very enjoyable to those who truly love and understand nature and the outdoors. Good judgement, maturity, proper preparation and planning can turn these adventuresinto great experiencesyou’ll talk about for a lifetime. Share these adventures with young people wheneveryou can and show them how to do it properly. Don’t let anyone under 16 operate this vehicle. They just aren’t mature and experienced enough to take on the serious responsibility of operating a vehicle in the off-road environment without the benefit of an experienced adult with them. Remember, the only one who can prevent and avoid an accident is the operator in control and that’s you!

Introduction

Land Pride Gondo bodies are constructed of fiberglass. Scuffs, light scratches and deep gouges are in most situations repairable. Land Pride recommends that you use a professional body shop to restore your vehicle’s body. For your consideration, we have provided below a listof recommended tools, materialsandsteps suggested for repairing the fiberglass body.
NOTE:LandPride does not supply the required tools, paint and materialsneeded to repair the vehiclebody. All tools, paint and materials should be purchased locally.

Light Scuff

Required Tools and Materials
(See note above)
1,000 rpm buffing tool, DeWalt #849
Meguiars buffing compound #8432
Meguiars polish #8232 (optional)
Meguiars maroon cutting pad #W-7006
Meguiars tan polishing pad #W-9006 (optional)
Meguiars backing plate #W-64
Soft clean cotton cloths
Steps to Repair
1. Clean entire area of repair.Clean water is fine for this purpose. Do not use solvent as this will damage the body surface.
2. Install cutting pad #7006 on buffer (maroon pad).
3. Spread compound on area of repair, use about as much as it takes to cover a half-dollar coin, this is a good starting point.
4. Set buffing tool to lowest possible speed on dial, do not buff at a high speed as this will heat and warp material.
5. Buff damage area until surface scuff disappears. A second and third application of compound may be required. Keep buffer moving over surface, this will help keep the surface cool. Clean compound residue off surface after each buffing operation. Do not continuetobuffcompounduntildry,orbuffthesurface when dry. When all scuff marks have been buffed out the surface may still appear a little dull, if so, proceed to #6.
6. Install polish on surface as in step #3.
7. Spread #8232 polish on surface as in step #3.
8. Polish to a high luster or as required to match surrounding material.
9. Wipe clean with soft clean cloth; any dirt on cloth will mar surface.

3M-P800 sanding film #00970
Steps to Repair
1. Clean entire area of repair.Clean water is fine for this purpose. Do not use solvent as this will damage the body surface.
2. Install interface-sanding pad onto finishing sander. Attach sanding film to Interface pad. (Take care in centering sanding pad and film on sander.)
3. Sand surfaceusing about 45 P.S.I. air pressure at tool inlet,donot sand at a high padspeed, because speed causes the sanding film to load with dust and heats the body surface. Proper sander pad speed is based on cut and travel speed of pad, and downward pressure applied by the operator. To clean sanding pad surface, run sander face at 90 degrees on the edge of a piece of cardboard. This cleaning operation will help keep the sanding film clean and run cooler. Continue to sand surface until original scratch damage is no longer visible. Wipe the surface with a cloththeninspectto be sure the entire originalscratch has been fully sanded away (very important).
4. Install cutting pad #7006 on buffer (maroon pad).
5. Spreadcompound #8432 on area of repair,useabout as much as it takes to cover a half-dollar coin, this is a good starting point.
