12. RIDING
WARNING
You must inspect your ATV each time before riding to ensure it is in proper working
order. If proper inspection is not done, severe injury or death could result.
See “4. DAILY PRE-RIDE INSPECTION”
1. Sit upright with both feet on footrests and both hands on the handlebars.
2. After starting the engine and allowing it to warm up, shift the transmission into
gear.
3. Check your surroundings and determine your path of travel.
4. Release the parking brake.
5. Slowly depress the throttle with your right thumb and begin driving. Vehicle
speed is controlled by the amount of throttle opening.
6. Drive slowly, practice maneuvering and using the throttle and brakes on level
surfaces.
Making turns
Practice making turns at slow speeds
This ATV is equipped with two drive shafts which drive both rear wheels equally at
all times. This means that the wheel on the outside of the turn must travel a greater
distance than the inside wheels when turning and the inside tire must slip traction
slightly. To turn, steer in the direction of the turn, leaning your weight on the outer
footrest. This technique alters the balance of traction between the rear wheels,
allowing the turn to be made smoothly. The same leaning technique should be used
for turning in reverse.
