WHAT TO DO ...

If your ATV doesn't turn when you want it
G
to: Bring the ATV to a stop and practice the
turning maneuvers again. Be sure you are
putting your weight on the footboard to the
outside of the turn. Position your weight
over the front wheels for better control.
(See pages 7-22 ~ 7-23.)
If your ATV begins to tip while turning: Lean
G
more into the turn to regain balance. If nec-
essary, gradually let off the throttle and/or
steer to the outside of the turn. (See pages
7-22 ~ 7-23.)
G If your ATV starts to slide sideways: Steer
in the direction of the slide if you have the
room. Applying the brakes or accelerating
is not recommended until you have correct-
ed the slide. (See pages 7-38 ~ 7-39.)
If your ATV can't make it up a hill you are
G
trying to climb: Turn the ATV around if you
still have forward speed. If not, stop, dis-
mount on the uphill side of the ATV and
physically turn the ATV around. If the ATV
starts to slip backwards DO NOT USE THE
REAR BRAKE - the ATV may tip over on
top of you. Dismount the ATV on the uphill
side. (See pages 7-24 ~ 7-29.)
