Pug CheTech Groundforce

wildmg · Jun 20, 2012

Help! I have a PUG CheTech GroundForce, 2x4, manual dump bed. It looks similar to a Gator. The dump bed will fold up to become a back bench type seat, plus the dump bed is bigger than a gator, probably same width, but longer. I bought it used and the owner did not have any manuals or info about it. I have searched on the internet, but haven't been able to find any comparable pics or info. I would like to find out what year it is, if there are any operator/service type manuals avail for it and info about parts. I have been having a starting/battery recharging issue. We replaced the starter and I think the solenoid (sp?) is next. We don't really have a parts dealer, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of complicated parts, but w/out having the year...plus I haven't been able to find a serial # for it...anyone know where this should be found? I really like this machine, but need it to start and run good. It is my work horse, tank, mini dump truck, haul-n-carry everything...Why they ever quit making them I have no idea.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi I have four badlands pugs and I was haveing chargeing problems. So made a bracket and mounted 50 amp alt. with internal reg. had a bad stator ring to much trouble to take eng. out put a bigger battery in them now I bright holgens lites to see the rattlesnakes in the desert at nite. As far as the manuals go there is a guy back east that has manuals for most pugs try to find his name and will post. and as far the pug goes it is the best utv going in my opinion.
