Safety Warning - BOMBARDIER 650 Operator's Manual

SAFETY WARNING

To fully appreciate the pleasures and excitement of riding this vehicle, 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. Irrespective, we ask that you take a
few minutes to read this Operator's Guide completely before you operate this
vehicle.
Information in this Operator's Guide is limited. It is strongly recommended that
you obtain further information and training from your local authorities, ATV clubs
or a recognized ATV training organization such as Specialty Vehicle Institute of
America (SVIA) or the Canada Safety Council.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and all ATV manufacturers do
not recommended anyone under the age of 16 to ride an ATV having an engine
higher than 90 cc. For the child's safety, we strongly recommend you also follow
and enforce this recommendation. You are the sole judge of a rider's capability
to understand the risks and operate a vehicle safely.
Persons with cognitive or physical impairments or who are high risk takers have
an increased exposure to overturns or collisions which may result in injury includ-
ing death.
Become completely familiar with the operational controls and the general oper-
ation of the vehicle before venturing into off road conditions. Practice driving in
a suitable area free of hazards and feel the response of each control. Drive at
low speeds. Higher speeds require greater experience, knowledge and suitable
riding conditions.
Not all vehicles are the same. Each has its own unique performance character-
istics, controls and features. Each will ride and handle differently.
Never assume that the vehicle will go everywhere safely. Sudden changes in
terrain caused by holes, depressions, banks, softer or harder "ground" or other
irregularities may cause the vehicle to topple or become unstable. To avoid this,
slow down and always observe the terrain ahead. If the vehicle does begin to
topple or tipover, it is usually the best advice to immediately get off... AWAY
from the direction of the tipover!
