operations on more difficult terrain.
● Always avoid riding on paved surfaces: the
ATV is designed for off-road use, and
handling maneuvers are more difficult to
perform on pavement.
● Shift to the gear position "N" and follow the
instructions to start the engine. Once it has
warmed up you are ready to begin riding
your ATV
● Remember that the engine and exhaust
pipe will be hot while riding and shortly
afterwards; do not allow skin or clothing to
come in contact with these components.
● With the engine idling, move the gear shift
lever to the low position "L" or the high
position "H". Apply the throttle slowly and
smoothly. The centrifugal clutch
engage 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 steering control.
● Avoid higher speeds until you are
thoroughly familiar with the operation of
your ATV.
● When slowing down or stopping, release
the throttle and apply the brakes smoothly
and evenly.
● Improper use of the brakes can cause the
tires to lose traction, reducing control and
increasing the possibility of an accident.
