Supervision; Taking Responsibility; Experienced/Trained Riders - Arctic Cat 2010 400 H1 TRV Operator's Manual

Supervision

Overview
You're responsible for supervising
those who ride your ATV. Your wisdom
is valuable . . . it'll bring them all back
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 rid-
ing your ATV.

Taking Responsibility

You're to the last letter in "PASS" . . .
"Supervision." You've
through the manual, and you've seen
what's involved. That puts you in a
good position 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 expe-
rience with riding an all-terrain ATV or
taken a training course, it's your
responsibility to keep them off your
ATV. It can be dangerous (especially
for underaged children)—all the more
reason for you to be firm.
Experienced/Trained
Riders
If anyone is going to borrow your ATV,
you are responsible for their supervi-
sion. Before they ride, have them take
the training course, have them watch
the safety video, and have them read
the Operator's Manual. You train them.
It doesn't matter how you do it, as long
as you do it.

! WARNING
TRV's are 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 conscience that someone got
hurt because you didn't tell them how
to use your ATV.
Remember that regardless of
experience, you should never let
anyone under the age of 16 oper-
ate your ATV
