Performing “wheelies” can cause the DRX2 to flip over onto you. Both practices have a high risk and should be avoided at all times. To maintain proper control it is strongly advised that you keep your hands on the handlebar and within easy reach of all controls.
Page 40 Wet, deep or fine sand/snow may create a loss of traction and cause the DRX2 to slide, drop off or become “bogged” down. If this occurs, look for a firmer base. Again, the best advice is to slow down and be watchful of the conditions.
Page 41 Do not over-speed since this may cause the front of the DRX2 to lift from the ground and fall back on you. If the hill is too steep and you cannot proceed or the DRX2 begins to roll backwards, apply the brake, being careful not to slide.
Page 42: Location Of The Important Labels
Once your drive completed it is wise to remove any buildup of snow, ice, mud and grime. Not only will this help you keep the DRX2 longer and in good condition for resale but will eliminate potential hazards the next time you use the DRX2.
