With the engine idling, shift the drive select lever
into the forward "FWD" position. Apply the throttle
slowly and smoothly. The centrifugal clutch will en-
gage and you will start to accelerate. If the throttle
is applied too abruptly, the front wheels may lift off
the ground resulting in a loss of directional control.
Avoid higher speeds until you are thoroughly famil-
iar with the operation of your ATV.
When slowing down or stopping, release the throt-
tle and apply the brakes smoothly and evenly. Im-
proper use of the brakes can cause the tires to
lose traction, reducing control and increasing the
possibility of an accident.
