RIDING THE VEHICLE

Downhill Driving

This vehicle can climb steeper ropes than it can descend safely. Therefore, it is es-
sential to assure that a safe route exists to descend a slope before you climb it.

Decelerating while negotiating a slippery downhill slope could “toboggan” the ve-
hicle. Maintain steady speed and/or accelerate slightly to regain control.

Side Hilling

Whenever possible, such operation should be avoided. If necessary, do so with
extreme caution. Side hilling on steep inclines could result in rollover. In addition,
slippery or unfirm surfaces could result in uncontrollable side sliding. Do not at-
tempt to turn the vehicle downhill with the slide. Avoid all objects or depressions
that will intensify the raising of one side of the vehicle higher than the other, thus
causing rollover.

Drop-Offs

This vehicle will “bottom-out” and usually stop if either the front or rear wheels are
driven over a drop-off. If the drop is sharp or deep, the vehicle will nose dive and
tipover.

WARNING

Avoid negotiating drop-offs. Reverse and select an alternate route.

Riding Techniques

Riding your vehicle too fast for the conditions may result in injury. Apply only
enough throttle to proceed safely. Statistics show that high speed turns usually
result in mishaps and injury. Always remember that this vehicle is heavy! Its pure
weight alone may entrap you should it fall and pin you down.

This vehicle is not designed for jumping nor can it, or you, absorb the energy of high
impacts such as jumping. Performing “wheelies” can cause the vehicle to flip over
onto you. Both practices have a high risk for you and should be avoided at all times.

To maintain proper control it is strongly advised that you keep your hands on the
handlebar and within easy reach of all controls. The same holds true for your feet.
To minimize the possibility of any leg or foot injury, keep your feet on the footrests
at all times. Do not direct your toes outwards nor place your foot out to assist
turning as they can be hit or snagged by passing obstacles or may contact the
wheels.
