Qlink RD400 User Manual page 82

Select a large, flat area off-road to become familiar with
your ATV. Make sure that this area is free of obstacles
and other riders. You should practice control of the throttle,
brakes, and turning techniques in this area before trying
more difficult terrain.
Always avoid riding on paved surfaces: the ATV is
designed for off-road use only, and handling maneuvers
are more difficult to perform on pavement.
Set the parking brake and follow the instruction on
page 43 to start the engine. Once it has warmed up you
are ready to begin riding your ATV. Remember that the
engine and exhaust pipe will be hot when riding and
afterwards; do not allow skin or clothing to come in contact
with these components.
USER'S MANUAL
With the engine idling, return the starter (choke)to
the closed position, shift the drive select lever into
the forward positi on, a nd t hen rel ease the parking
brake. Apply the throttle slowly and smoothly. The
centrifugal clutch will engage and you will start to
accelerate. If the throttle is applied too abruptly, the
front wheels may lift off the ground resulting in a loss
of directional control. Avoid higher speeds until you
are thoroughly familiar with the operation of your ATV.
When slowing down or stopping, release the throttle and
apply the brakes smoothly and evenly.
Improper use of the brakes can cause the tires to lose
traction, reducing control and increasing the possibility of
an accident.
