RIDING THE VEHICLE
Even though there is a suspension on this vehicle, there are "washboard" or
rough terrain conditions that will make you feel uncomfortable and can even
cause a back injury. "Posting" or riding in a crouched position will often be re-
quired. Slow down and allow your flexed legs to absorb part of the impact
energy.

The passenger must keep his hands on the grab handles and his feet on the
footrests at all time.
The passenger must also synchronize his movements with the operator.

If you have to cross a road, ensure to have complete visibility on both sides for in-
coming traffic and decide on exit point on other side of road. Drive in a straight
line toward that point. Do not make sharp direction changes or abrupt accelera-
tions as it may result in a rollover situation. Do not travel on sidewalks or bicycle
trails as they are designated specifically for those uses.

Practice turning at low speeds before attempting to turn at faster speeds.
Keep both hands on handlebars and feet on footpegs.
Maintain a constant speed or a slight acceleration during turn.
To reduce the risk of rollovers:
– Use care when turning.
– Do not turn the handlebar too far or too fast for your speed and environ-
ment. Adjust steering inputs accordingly.
– Slow down before entering a turn. Avoid hard braking during a turn.
