Supervision; Taking Responsibility - Arctic Cat 350 Manual

Supervision

Overview
You're responsible for supervising those
who ride your ATV. Your wisdom is valu-
able... it'll bring them
safely—your friends, your family, your
relatives, and your ATV. It's crucial that
you consider yourself a supervisor for all
riders of your ATV. Whether you accept
responsibility or not, the truth is that you
are responsible for others riding your
ATV.

Taking Responsibility

You're to the last letter in "PASS"...
"Supervision." You've just gone through
the manual, and you've seen what's
involved. That puts you in a good posi-
tion to be confident about what you
know. So now it's time to use your
knowledge and supervise others who ride
your ATV.
Inexperienced/Untrained
Riders
You can't let people ride your ATV who
don't know what they're doing. Unless
they've had over a year of experience
with ATV riding or taken an ATV train-
ing course, it's your responsibility to
keep them off your ATV. It can be dan-
gerous — all the more reason for you to
be firm.

! WARNING
Experienced Riders
If anyone is going to borrow your ATV,
you are responsible for their supervision.
all back Before they ride, have them read the
Operator's Manual. You train them. It
doesn't matter how you do it, as long as
you do it.
ATV's are all a little different from the
handling to the stability to the controls.
So regardless of how much experience
your family members have, they don't
have experience with your ATV. Let
experienced riders get familiar with your
ATV—show them the basics before they
take off. You don't want it on your con-
science that someone got hurt because
you didn't tell them how to use your
ATV.
Remember that regardless of experi-
ence, you should never let anyone
under the age of 16 operate your
ATV.
