Safety Warnings
Carrying a Passenger in the
Cargo Box
A passenger riding in the cargo box could fall
from the vehicle unexpectedly or may contact
moving components, both of which can result in
severe injury or death. Never allow a passenger
to ride in the cargo box.

Operating on Pavement

Operating an ATV on paved surfaces
(including sidewalks, paths, parking lots and
driveways) may adversely affect the
handling of the ATV and could result in loss
of control and accident or overturn.
Avoid operating the ATV on pavement. ATV
tires are designed for off-road use. If it's
unavoidable, travel slowly and avoid sudden
turns or stops.

Operating on Public Roads

Operating this ATV on public streets, roads
or highways could result in a collision with
another vehicle.
Never operate the ATV on any public street,
road or highway, including dirt and gravel
roads. In many states it's unlawful to
operate ATVs on public streets, roads and
highways.
Operating at Excessive
Speeds
Operating the ATV at excessive
speeds increases the operator's risk
of losing control.
Never operate at excessive speeds.
Travel at speeds appropriate for
your skills, your passenger's skills,
and operating conditions.
