  • Page 39: Safety Warning

    SAFETY WARNING To fully appreciate the pleasures and excitement of riding an ATV, there are some basic rules and tips that you should follow. Some may be new to you while others may be common sense or obvious. However, we ask that you take a few minutes to read this Operator’s Guide completely before you operate the ATV.

  • Page 40: Riding Tips

    RIDING TIPS While reading this Operator’s Guide, remember that: WARNING Indicates a potential hazard that could result in serious injury or death. WARNING The pre-operation check is very important prior to operating the vehicle. Always check the proper operation of critical controls, safety features and mechanical components before starting.

  • Page 41: Clothing

    Clothing Actual weather conditions should help you decide how to dress. However, it is important that you always wear the appropriate protective clothing and apparel, including an approved helmet, eye protection, boots, gloves, long sleeved shirt and pants. Never wear loose clothing such as a scarf that may get entangled in the ATV or on tree shrubs and branches.

  • Page 42: Carrying Loads

    Carrying Loads Any load carried on the ATV’s carrying rack(s) will affect the stability and control of the ATV. For this reason, do not exceed the load limits of the ATV manufacturer. Always make sure the load is secured and cannot interfere with your proper con- trol.

  • Page 43: Environment

    Always keep a safe distance from other riders. Your judgment of speed, terrain conditions, weather, mechanical condition of your ATV and the “trust in judg- ment” you have in others around you will help you make a better choice of ap- propriate safe distance.

  • Page 44: General Operating And Safety Precautions

    An operator who takes a vehicle off-road should always exercise the utmost care in selecting the safest path and keeping close watch on the terrain ahead of him. On no account should the vehicle be operated by anyone who is not completely familiar with the driving instructions applicable to the vehicle, or should it be op- erated on steep or treacherous terrain.

  • Page 45: Drop-Offs

    Drop-Offs An ATV will “bottom-out” and usually stop if either the front or rear wheels are driven over a drop-off. If the drop is sharp or deep, the vehicle will nose dive and tip-over. WARNING Avoid negotiating drop-offs. Reverse and select an alternate route. Riding Techniques Riding your ATV too fast for the conditions may result in injury.
  • Page 46 Even though there is an adequate suspension system on an ATV there are “wash- board” or rough terrain conditions that will make you feel uncomfortable and even cause back injury. “Posting” or riding in a crouched position will often be required. Slow down and allow your flexed legs to absorb impact.
  • Page 47 If your trip crosses frozen waterways, make sure the ice is thick enough to sup- port the total weight of yourself, the ATV and its load. Be ever watchful of open ice… it is a sure indication that the thickness of the ice varies. If in doubt, do not attempt to cross.
  • Page 48 If you do get into a slide or skid, it may help to turn the handlebar into the direction of the skid until you regain control. Never jam the brakes and lock the wheels. Respect and follow all posted trail signs. They are there to help you and others. Obstacles on the trail should be crossed with caution.
  • Page 49 Uphill Keep your body weight forward towards the top of the hill. Keep your feet on the footrests and shift into low gear then accelerate and when necessary, change gear quickly as you climb. Do not over-speed since this may cause the front of the ATV to lift from the ground and fall back on you.
  • Page 50 Downhill Keep your body weight rearwards. Apply the brake gradually to prevent skidding. Do not “coast” down the slope using solely engine compression or in neutral gear. V00A0YL SAFETY INFORMATION...
  • Page 51 Side-Hilling This is one of the most risky types of riding since it may drastically change the balance of the ATV. It should be avoided wherever possible. If it is necessary to do so however, it is important that you ALWAYS keep your body weight on the upside of the slope…...
