Tips & Tricks navigatedown
Note: This information pertains to the most recent DR® Powerwagons. Please refer to your Safety & Owner's Manual for instructions specific to your machine. Please refer to the Engine Owner's Manual for engine specific instructions.
Wear shoes with non-slip treads when using your machine. if you have safety shoes, we recommend wearing them. do not use the machine while barefoot or wearing open sandals.
Avoid wearing loose clothing or jewelry, which might catch on the machine's moving parts.
Use ear protectors or ear plugs rated for at least 20 dba to protect your hearing.
Read the safety considerations section of your Owner's Manual before operating the DR® Powerwagon.
Tips
Always release the throttle when shifting to avoid damaging the gears.
The DR® Powerwagon has three forward speeds and single-speed reverse. Use the lower gears for slower speeds, heavy loads, or more power, and the higher gears for transport. Use 1st gear with loads over 300 lbs. and on slopes. Never use your machine on slopes greater than 15°.
When engaging reverse, use extra caution. Check your path and footing before engaging the Traction Drive lever.
- With the operator presence lever depressed, move the shift lever to the desired gear.
- Release the parking brake.
- Depress the Traction Drive lever on the right handlebar.
Depressing the Traction Drive lever fast will make the DR® Powerwagon "jump" into motion. Depress the lever slowly for smooth acceleration.
Be careful when transporting heavy loads with your DR® Powerwagon. If the parking brake is applied suddenly, the load may shift and the wagon may start to tip forward. Brake slowly and try to avoid overloading the wagon.
- Release the Traction Drive lever.
- Set the parking brake by squeezing the parking brake lever on the left handlebar and lifting the parking brake's lock tab (see your Owner's Manual).
- Shift to "N" (see your Owner's Manual).
- Turn the key to the OFF position and remove it for safety.
In an emergency situation, releasing the operator presence lever will stop the machine. After the machine stops, follow steps 2 through 4 above.
- Avoid abrupt start-ups. Always depress the Traction Drive lever slowly to avoid bucking, or tipping the DR® Powerwagon.
- When using reverse, check to see that there are no obstacles behind you. Practice backing up in an open area with no load in the DR® Powerwagon.
The recommended maximum load limit for the DR® Powerwagon is Premier: 500 lbs, Pro: 700 lbs, Pro XL: 800 lbs; use 1st gear and keep loads less than 400 lbs on slopes. Never operate on slopes greater than 15°. Placing more weight in the bed may be dangerous to the operator, and can permanently damage the unit.
- When loading your DR® Powerwagon keep in mind the bulk and weight of what you will be hauling, and the terrain you will be crossing.
- Keep the load balanced and secured. Always distribute the load evenly so your DR® Powerwagon will be as stable as possible.
- Do not pile material too high. Divide your load and make several lighter trips. Do not pile heavy loads, such as rocks or gravel, to a height that will make the DR® Powerwagon top-heavy and susceptible to tipping over.
- Be careful going downhill and applying the brake. Squeeze the parking brake lever very slowly to avoid tipping forward.

Storage navigatedown
The following information is provided to demonstrate proper techniques when storing your DR® Powerwagon.
Note: This information pertains to the most recent Powerwagon models. Please refer to your Safety & Owner's Manual for instructions specific to your machine. Please refer to the Engine Owner's Manual for engine specific instructions.
When performing any maintenance, you must first shut off the engine, wait five (5) minutes for all parts to stop and cool, and disconnect the spark plug wire, keeping it away from the spark plug.
- Change the engine oil. This will help to eliminate sludge and acids in the engine. For winter use, use SAE 5W-30W oil.
- Remove the spark plug(s) and pour about 1 ounce of motor oil into the cylinder hole. Replace the plug and pull the recoil starter rope (if equipped) or crank the engine over using the electric start. This will coat the piston and seat the valves to prevent moisture buildup.
- If your DR® Powerwagon will be idle for more than 30 days, we recommend using DR® Ethanol Fuel Treatment. This will prevent fuel from decomposing and gumming up the carburetor. If there is sediment or moisture in the gas or tank, remove it by draining the tank. Completely fill the tank with fresh, unleaded gas and add the appropriate amount of fuel treatment. Run the engine for a short time to allow the additive to circulate.
- Clean/replace the air filter(s).
- Clean dirt and debris from the cylinder head cooling fins, carburetor linkage, blower housing, debris screen, rotating screen and muffler area of the engine.
- Check to make sure the operator controls are moving freely. Lubricate the throttle Lever, parking brake lever, and key switch with SAE 30 Oil if necessary. (See your Owner Manual)
- Be sure all nuts, bolts, and screws are securely fastened.
- Store the battery (if equipped) in a dry area that will not freeze. If you will not use the machine over a long period, charge the battery every four to six weeks. See your Owner's Manual for Battery Care.
