AN ATV IS NOT A TOY AND CAN BE HAZARD-
OUS TO OPERATE.
An ATV handles differently from other vehicles, in-
cluding motorcycles and cars. A collision or roll-
over can occur quickly, even during routine
maneuvers such as turning and riding on hills or
over obstacles, if you fail to take proper precau-
tions.
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH can result if you do
not follow these instructions:
 Read this manual and all labels carefully and fol-
low the operating procedures described.
 Never operate an ATV without proper training or
instruction. Take a Training Course. Beginners
should receive training from a certified instruc-
tor. Contact an authorized ATV dealer or call 1-
800-887-2887 to find out about the training
courses nearest you.
 Never allow a child under 10 years old to oper-
ate this ATV.
