3. Make sure you have a way out on
the other side of the water.
4. If you get stuck in the sludge or
mud, try rocking the ATV from side
to side.
5. Once you’ve cleared the water,
briefly apply the brakes to make sure
they work.
Crossing Roads
Crossing roads on your ATV is also a bad
idea, so avoid it. If you can’t:
1. Stop completely on the shoulder of
the road.
2. Check both directions for traffic.
3. Crossing near a blind corner or inter-
section is dangerous; don’t do it.
4. Drive straight across to the opposite
shoulder.
5. Take into account that your ATV
could stall while crossing; give
yourself enough time to get off the
road.
6. You have to assume that oncoming
cars don’t see you, and if they do,
they won’t be able to predict your
actions.
7. It’s illegal to cross public roads in
some places. Know your local laws.
Stopping the ATV
To stop the ATV, first release the throttle
lever. Next, apply the brake.
Stopping the Engine
To stop the engine, turn the ignition
switch key to the OFF position or set the
emergency stop switch to the OFF posi-
tion.
NOTE: Leaving the ignition switch
key in the ON position could result in
a discharged battery.
! WARNING
Do not operate this vehicle on a fro-
zen body of water unless you have
first verified the ice is sufficiently
thick to support the vehicle, cargo,
and participants. The vehicle could
break through the ice causing serious
injury or death.
