RIDE WITH CARE AND GOOD JUDGEMENT
Get training if you are inexperienced.
Beginners should get training from a certi-
fied instructor.
Become familiar with this ATV at slow
speeds first, even if you are an experienced
operator. Do not attempt to operate at
maximum performance until you are total-
ly familiar with the machine’s handling and
performance characteristics.
Riding your machine requires skills
acquired through practice over a period of
time.
Take the time to learn the basic techniques
well before attempting more difficult
maneuvers.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Operating this ATV without proper
instruction.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
The risk of an accident is greatly increased
if the operator does not know how to
operate the ATV properly in different situ-
ations and on different types of terrain.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Beginning and inexperienced operators
should complete the certified training
course offered by Yamaha. They should
then regularly practice the skills learned
in the course and the operating tech-
niques described in this Owner’s
Manual.
For more information about the training
course, contact an authorized ATV deal-
er or call 1-800-447-4700.
