special turning technique must be used to allow
the ATV to make turns quickly and easily. It is es-
sential that this skill be learned first at low speed.
WARNING
EWB01310
As you approach a curve, slow down and begin to
turn the handlebars in the desired direction. As you
do so, put your weight on the footboard to the out-
side of the turn (opposite your desired direction)
and lean your upper body into the turn. Use the
throttle to maintain an even speed through the turn.
This maneuver will let the wheel on the inside of
the turn slip slightly, allowing the ATV to make the
turn properly.
This procedure should be practiced at slow speed
many times in a large off-road area with no obsta-
cles. If an incorrect technique is used, your ATV
may continue to go straight. If the ATV doesn’t
turn, come to a stop and then practice the proce-
dure again. If the riding surface is slippery or loose,
it may help to position more of your weight over the
front wheels by moving forward on the seat.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Turning improperly.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
ATV could go out of control, causing a colli-
sion or overturn.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Always follow proper procedures for turning
as described in this Owner’s Manual. Prac-
tice turning at low speeds before attempting
to turn at faster speeds. Do not turn at
speeds too fast for your skills or the condi-
tions. Operate at a slow speed and allow ex-
tra time and distance for maneuvers when in
4WD-LOCK (“DIFF. LOCK”).
1. Lean towards inside of turn.
2. Support your weight on the outer footboard.
