If you do get into a slide or skid, it may help to turn the handlebar into the direction
of the skid until you regain control. Never jam the brakes and lock the wheels.
Respect and follow all posted trail signs. They are there to help you and others.
Obstacles in the "trail" should be traversed with caution. This includes loose
rocks, fallen trees, slippery surfaces, fences, posts, and embankments and de-
pressions. You should avoid them whenever possible. Remember that some
obstacles are too large or dangerous to cross and should be avoided. The op-
erator is responsible for the safety of the passenger and in doubt, disembark
the passenger before getting through the obstacles. Small rocks or fallen trees
may be safely crossed... approach at a 90° angle. Stand on the footrests while
keeping your knees flexed. Adjust speed without losing momentum and do not
"gun" the throttle. Hold handlebar firmly. Place your body weight rearwards and
proceed. Do not try to lift the vehicle front wheels off the ground. Be aware that
the object may be slippery or may move while crossing.
When driving on hills or slopes two things are highly important... be prepared
for slippery surfaces or terrain variations and obstacles and... use proper body
positioning. The operator is responsible for the safety of the passenger and in
doubt, disembark him before getting through the obstacles.
