OPERATING AT EXCESSIVE SPEEDS
Operating this vehicle at excessive speeds
increases the operator's risk of losing control.
Always operate at a speed that's appropriate
for the terrain, the visibility and operating
conditions and your skills and experience.
PHYSICAL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE
Removing even one hand or foot can reduce ability to control the vehicle or
could cause loss of balance and ejection from the ATV.
If a person's feet are not firmly planted on the footrests, they could come into
contact with the wheels or other moving parts and lead to accident or injury.
Always keep both hands on the handlebars and both feet on the footrests of the
ATV during operation.
TURNING IMPROPERLY
CAUTION
Turning improperly could cause loss of traction, loss of control, accident or
rollover. Always follow proper procedures for turning as described in this
owner’s manual.
Avoid sharp turns. Never turn while applying heavy throttle. Never make abrupt
steering maneuvers. Practice turning at slow speeds before attempting to turn at
faster speeds.
