Rider Training Course
You should be aware that AN ATV IS NOT A TOY AND CAN BE HAZARDOUS
TO OPERATE. An ATV handles differently from other vehicles, including
motorcycles and cars. A collision or rollover can occur quickly, even during
routine manoeuvres such as turning and driving on hills and over obstacles, if
you fail to take proper precautions.
TO AVOID DEATH OR SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY:
• Always read the operator’s manual carefully and follow the operating
procedures described. Pay special attention to the warnings contained
in the manual and on all labels.
• Never operate an ATV without proper instruction. Take a training course.
• Never operate an ATV without an approved motorcycle helmet, eye
protection, boots, gloves, long pants and a long-sleeved shirt or jacket.
• Never operate an ATV at excessive speeds. Go at a speed which is
proper for the terrain, visibility conditions, and your experience.
• Never attempt to do wheelies, jumps, or other stunts.
• A lways be careful when operating an ATV, especially when approaching
hills, turns, and obstacles and when operating on unfamiliar or rough
terrain.
