STEP 4 - TURNING
After your child has learned to ride the
『 『
A A T T V V
』 』
in a straight line and can stop it when he/she
wants to, you should teach the child how to turn
the vehicle.
Explain the proper body movements for turning,
and let your child PRACTICE FIRST WITH THE
ENGINE OFF, as you push the vehicle from
behind.
When turning, watch to make sure your child:
1. Shifts his/her weight slightly forward and sup-
ports his/her weight on the outer footrest.
2. Leans his/her upper body into the turn and
turns the handlebars in the direction of the
turn.
When the rider is able to properly turn the
『 『
A A T T V V
』 』
in both directions with the engine off,
he/she should practice with the vehicle under
power. Again, make sure that the throttle limiter
is adjusted to provide a low maximum speed
capability. Watch closely to make sure the rider
is using the proper turning technique. The rider
should practice turning until he/she can do it cor-
rectly and with confidence.

STEP 5 - PUTTING IT ALL
TOGETHER
When your child has mastered the basic riding
maneuvers in the previous steps, he/she should
practice putting them all together. Instruct the
rider to perform various maneuvers such as
turning right, turning left, stopping, parking, etc.
Mix up the order of these maneuvers so the
child will not know what he/she will be asked to
do next. Practice this exercise until you are con-
fident that the rider has mastered all the basic
maneuvers.
The above steps will help the first time rider
learn the most basic riding techniques. To
become a skilled rider, your child will need a
great deal of practice and instruction after these
steps have been completed. Be patient with
your child; take extra time when teaching
him/her additional techniques such as the rec-
ommended techniques for climbing and
descending hills.
After your child has mastered all of the basic rid-
ing techniques at slow speeds, you can adjust
the throttle limiter to provide higher speed capa-
bilities, according to the rider s skill and experi-
ence.
