Yamaha PTVs are designed to be simple to operate.
However, be sure to observe the following to reduce
the risk of serious injury or death due to loss of control
and other hazards:
BEFORE OPERATING THE PTV
• Read this Owner's/Operator's manual and all safety
and instruction labels on the PTV before operating.
• Perform the pre-operation checks found in Section
5 of this manual.
• Only authorized people should drive the PTV, from
the driver's side only, and only in designated areas.
• Do not allow more than two occupants per seat.
This PTV is restricted to two occupants, unless
equipped with a rear seat.
• Do not operate the PTV while under the influence
of alcohol or drugs; their effect on vision and judg-
ment make operating a PTV dangerous.
• Do not operate the PTV on public streets, roads or
highways; unless allowed by law or local regulating
authority.
WHILE OPERATING THE PTV
• Keep your entire body inside the PTV, remain seat-
ed, and hold on when the car is in motion.
• Do not start the PTV until all occupants are seated.
• Keep your hands on the steering wheel and your
eyes on the path ahead.
• Use extra care in congested areas or when backing
up. Always back up slowly, and watch carefully.
• Avoid starting or stopping abruptly.
• Vary the speed of the PTV to match the terrain.
• Avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply at
higher speeds to avoid tipping or rolling the vehicle.
