IV RIDING THE VEHICLE
users on the trail. Do not drive to the center of the trail and do not zigzag to one
side of the trail then the other. Be prepared to stop or pull off to the side if another
trail user appears in front of you.
Join a local ATV club. It will provide you with a map and advice or inform you where
you can ride. If a club does not exist in your area, help to start one. Group riding and
club activities provide a pleasurable, social experience.
Always keep a safe distance from other riders. Your judgment of speed, ter-
rain conditions, weather, mechanical condition of your vehicle and the "trust in
judgment" you have in others around you will help you make a better choice of
appropriate safe distance. This vehicle, like any other motorized vehicle, cannot
stop "on a dime". Allow greater distance for braking. On 2-UP models, the
vehicle handling, stability and braking distance may be affected when riding with
a passenger. Safely reduce speed when riding with a passenger.
Before you ride, tell someone where you are planning to travel and your expected
time of return.
Depending on the length of your ride, carry additional tools , drinking water, food
and emergency equipment. Find out where you can get additional gasoline and oil.
Be prepared for the possible conditions you may encounter.

5) Environment

One of the benefits of this vehicle is that it can take you off the beaten path away
from most communities. However, you should always respect nature and the
rights of others to enjoy it. Do not ride in environmentally sensitive areas. Do not
drive over forest crops or shrubs nor cut down trees or take down fencing nor spin
your wheels and destroy the terrain. "Tread Lightly".
This vehicle can cause OHV wildfires if debris builds up near the exhaust or other
engine hot spots and ignites then falls off into dry grass. Avoid riding in wet areas,
through muskeg or tall grass, where debris can build up. Should you ride in those
areas, inspect and remove all debris from your engine and hot spots.
Chasing wildlife is in many areas illegal. Wildlife can die of exhaustion after being
chased by a motorized vehicle. If you encounter animals on the trail, stop and ob-
serve quietly and with caution. It will be one of the better memories of your life.
Observe the rule "what you take in, carry out". Do not litter. Do not start camp-
fires unless you have permission to do so and then only away from dry areas. The
hazards you may create on the trail may cause injury to others or yourself, even at
a later date.
