Do not operate after or while consuming alcohol or drugs.
The operator
’s performance capability is reduced by the
influence of alcohol or drugs. Consuming alcohol or drugs
could seriously affect your judgment, cause you to react more
slowly, and affect your balance and perception.
WARNING! Never consume alcohol or drugs before
or while driving this ATV. You increase your chance of an
accident.
Pre-operation checks
Always inspect your ATV each time you use it to
make sure the ATV is in safe operating condition.
Perform the pre-operation checks listed on PRE
-OPERATION CHECKS page.
Always follow the inspection and maintenance
procedures and schedules described in the Owner
’s Manual.
WARNING! Failure to inspect
the ATV before operating it and to maintain it
properly increases the possibility of an accident
or equipment damage.
Speed limiter
For riders less experienced with this model, the throttle
lever housing is equipped with a speed limiter. The speed
limiter keeps the throttle from fully opening, even when
the throttle lever is pushed to the maximum. Turning in the
adjusting screw limits the maximum engine power available
and decreases the maximum speed of the ATV. Turning in
the adjusting screw decreases top speed, and turning it
out increases top speed.
Loading and accessories
WARNING
Improper loading or towing can increase the risk of loss of
control, and overturn, or other accident.
To reduce the risk of an accident:
●
Do not exceed the maximum loading limits for the
vehicle (see
“MAXIMUM LOADING LIMIT” below or
vehicle labeling).
●
Make sure the load does not interfere with your control
or ability to see where you are going.
●
Reduce speed and allow more room to stop a heavier
vehicle takes longer to stop.
●
Avoid hills and rough terrain. Choose terrain carefully.
