Yamaha WOLVERINE 2015 Owner's Manual page 107

Become familiar with the way the vehicle feels
in low and high ranges, first in two-wheel
drive "2WD" and then in four-wheel drive
"4WD" and four-wheel drive with the differen-
tial locked "DIFF LOCK". Steering may take
more effort in four-wheel drive with the differ-
ential locked "DIFF LOCK". Also practice
driving in reverse.
Take the time to learn basic operation of the
vehicle before attempting more difficult ma-
neuvers.
Getting ready to ride
Perform the Pre-Operation Checks on page
5-1. Follow the instructions starting on page
6-2 to start the engine.
Turning
Use care in turns – turning the steering wheel
too far or too fast can result in loss of control
or a rollover. Slow down before entering
turns. When making tight turns from a stand-
still or at slow speeds, avoid sudden or hard
acceleration. Driving aggressively or making
abrupt maneuvers even on flat, open areas
can cause side rollovers. Avoid sideways slid-
ing, skidding, or back-wheel sliding, and nev-
er do donuts. If you feel the Wolverine begin
to slide sideways or the back wheels slide
during a turn, steer into the direction of the
slide, if possible, and gradually let off the ac-
celerator pedal to regain directional control
and avoid rollover. For example, if you feel the
back of the vehicle start to slide to your right,
steer to the right.
