Taking Care of the Unexpected
Keeping your ATV well-maintained is the best way to reduce the
possibility of having a problem while riding. However, problems can
arise even with well-maintained machines.
Remember to take along your owner’s manual, the tool kit that
came with your ATV, and any other items (such as tire repair supplies
and additional tools) that might help you solve a problem on your
own.
If something goes wrong during a ride, the first thing to do is stop as
soon as you safely can. Do not continue riding if you have a flat tire,
or you hear an unusual noise, or your ATV just doesn’t feel right. If
you continue riding, you could cause more damage and endanger
your own safety.
After stopping, take time to assess the situation. Carefully inspect
your ATV to identify the problem, then consider your options before
you decide what to do.
If a problem is relatively minor and you have the tools, supplies, and
skills to make a permanent repair, you may be able to fix it on the
trail and continue riding. Or, you may be able to make a temporary
repair that allows you to slowly ride back to your base where you can
make a permanent repair or get help.
When a problem is more serious — or you don’t have the tools,
supplies, experience, or time to deal with it — you need to choose
the safest way to get yourself and your ATV back to base. For
example, if you are close enough, you (or you and another person)
might be able to push it back.
