KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

This off-road vehicle will handle and maneu-
ver differently from cars, ATVs, go-carts, golf-
cars and grounds-keeping vehicles. The
WolverineX4 has higher ground clearance
and other features to handle rugged terrain,
and, as a result, can overturn in situations
where some vehicles may not. This would in-
clude vehicles made primarily for pavement,
roads, improved paths, or grounds-keeping.
If you do not use care in maneuvering the
WolverineX4, you can cause it to roll over
even on flat, open areas.
Doing things with a WolverineX4 that some
people do for thrills in other vehicles [such as
sideways sliding, skidding, fishtailing (rear-
wheel sliding), or donuts] have led to side roll-
overs. These rollovers can result in crushed
limbs and other serious injuries or death to
drivers or passengers.
