room overhead for your vehicle and your
head to clear easily.
10. Always use good judgment when operating
on or near an incline, ramp, grade, slope or
other surface.
11. Always adjust your speed to conditions(dry,
moist, icy, etc.).
12. Never start or stop suddenly. You may
cause unstable vehicle operating conditions.
13. Never change direction of vehicle abruptly or
make sharp turns on an incline, ramp, grade,
slope or other surface.
14. Always stay a safe distance away from
pedestrians, ramp edges, platforms, other
equipment, etc.
15. Always drive straight up and down the face of
an incline, ramp, grade or slope, never
across the face.
While driving down an incline, especially with
a heavily loaded vehicle, always remove the
foot from the speed control switch pedal to
avoid increasing the vehicle speed beyond
level ground maximum speed. Always use
foot brake to slow the vehicle.
Never park the vehicle with loaded trailers on
incline or ramps.
Never leave the vehicle without applying the
park brake and removing the switch key.
16. Never overload your vehicle, or trailers. The
maximum rated capacity is: 450 lbs. (204
kg) includes 200 lbs. (91 kg) for operator;
tows up to 3000 lbs. (1361 kg); up to 15000
(6804 kg) with additional trailer brakes. See
towing capacities on page 8.
Always position loads carefully so they can't
shift or tip over suddenly. Distribute loads
GB-7
E-Z-GO XI 340 / CUSHMAN TUG
SAFETY, OPERATORS & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
evenly over rear area.
Always keep loads low (not top heavy) so
vehicle does not get top heavy when driven.

following:
• Always apply/set the parking brake.
• Always place the direction selector switch in
"off" (center) position.
• Always turn the switch key to vertical "off"
position and remove the key to prevent
unauthorized people from operating the
vehicle.
When parking the vehicle only on an incline, the
front wheel should be curbed whenever possible.
See illustration.
While driving down an incline, release the speed
control switch pedal to conserve battery power and
avoid increasing the vehicle speed beyond level
ground maximum speed. Use foot brake to slow
the vehicle.
NOTICE
• To avoid motor damage, do not cause the
motor to exceed normal operating speed.
• The vehicle electrical circuit includes a
protective component.““
Thermal circuit breaker
This switch prevents overloading of the drive motor.
should the vehicle be stopped by the opening of the
circuit breaker, the breaker will automatically reset
in about 20 seconds. An audible click will be heard
when circuit breaker resets. If the circuit breaker
continues to open, a problem exists within the
circuit, or vehicle is overloaded. Do not operate the
vehicle.
Consult your authorized cushman dealer for any
service required.
TOWING THE VEHICLE
Attach towing equipment to the front kick panel
outer edges near the floorboard.“refer to the
chassis lubrication chart for towing equipment
attaching locations (page 9).
• Always attach towing equipment to the
vehicle at the towing points. Never attach
towing equipment under the vehicle. You
may damage steering, brake lines, or other
parts.
• Always remove the load before towing the
vehicle. Towing a loaded vehicle could
cause either vehicle to lose proper steering
control.
GB-8

NOTICE
• Towing the vehicle at excessive speed could
cause damage to the drive train components,
such as the drive motor which could cause the
towed vehicle to stop abruptly.
TOWING TRAILERS/EQUIPMENT, ETC.
• do not exceed 3,000 lbs. (1362 kg)
gross weight towing capability of
vehicle. Failure of brakes/steering
may occur, injuring operator or
bystanders.
• never use the vehicle on floors,
ramps or other surfaces that are not
strong enough to support the
vehicle when loaded with maximum
rated payload and any towed trailer
with payload.
• to prevent possible loss of control
and collision or vehicle upset when
towing, the operator must
determine that the vehicle has
adequate braking capacity to stop
either a loaded or unloaded vehicle
and the towed unit(s) on the type(s)
of surface(s) and grade(s) on which
the units will be operated. Sudden
stops may cause trailers and
vehicle to jackknife.
Also, the load must be positioned
on the towed unit(s) so the trailer
tongue weight on the vehicle will
not cause instability or loss of
vehicle steering control.
Recommended maximum gross towed
load
1 trailer: 3000 lbs. (1362 kg)
2 trailers: 1500 lbs. Each (681 kg)
3 trailers: 1000 lbs. Each (454 kg)
NOTICE
• towing a load greater than 3000lbs. (1361 kg)
up to 15000 (6804 kg) requires additional
trailer brakes.
VEHICLE SERVICE AND“ MAINTENANCE
• when replacement parts are
required, use genuine cushman
parts. Failure to do so may result in
product malfunction and possible
injury to the operator and/or
bystanders.
Never attempt to perform service or maintenance
functions on this vehicle if you are untrained or
unauthorized. Improper maintenance can cause
hazardous conditions. See your authorized cushman
dealer for necessary maintenance and service.
When it is necessary to raise the vehicle for any
repair or service, use jackstands to provide adequate
support. Do not rely on hydraulic or mechanical
jacks.
It is advisable that your vehicle be equipped with an
hour meter (set #884737) to record hours of
operation. A good maintenance schedule can then
be established.
NOTICE
• coasting the vehicle at excessive speed
could cause damage to the drive train
components, such as the drive motor which
could cause the vehicle to stop abruptly.
• this vehicle can tow heavier loads
than can be stopped under some
conditions.
The following maintenance guide provides a check
list for servicing your vehicle. The guide is set up for
average use on clean, paved surfaces. Vehicles
used in dusty areas, or operated in mud, snow or
water or for winter driving require more frequent
service.
