9、es of Light Utility Vehicles.One purpose of the document is to serve as a guide to governmental authorities having jurisdiction over subjects within the scope of the document. It is expected, however, that the document will find a major application in industry, serving as a guide to manufacturers, p
10、urchasers, and operators of the equipment.If adopted for governmental use, references to other national standards may be changed to refer to the corresponding governmental regulations. A second purpose of this standard is to provide design and performance requirements to aid in minimizing accidents
11、and injuries associated with the operation and maintenance of Light Utility Vehicles.SAE INTERNATIONAL J2258 NOV2016 Page 2 of 31The use of light utility vehicles is subject to certain hazards that cannot be eliminated by mechanical means, but only by theexercise of intelligence, care, and common se
12、nse. It is therefore essential to have competent and careful operators, who are not physically or mentally impaired, thoroughly trained in the safe operation of the equipment and the handling of the loads. It is recommended that the operator be capable of obtaining a valid motor vehicle operators li
13、cense. Serious hazards include, but are not limited to, hillside operation, overloading, instability of the load, oversize loads, poor maintenance, and using equipment for a purpose for which it was not intended or designed.TABLE OF CONTENTS1.
