As a Viking VI owner you are responsible for
the safe and proper operation of this vehicle.
Read this chapter and review the safety in-
structions in Chapter 3 before operating the
vehicle. Use these chapters and the labels on
the vehicle to instruct new operators and pas-
sengers. Do not allow anyone else to operate
the vehicle or ride as a passenger if you are
unsure that he/she is willing and able to follow
these instructions.
WARNING
EWB03340
Follow these instructions to reduce your
risk of an accident and to reduce the risk
of serious injury or death in the event of an
accident.

KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
This off-road vehicle will handle and ma-
neuver differently from cars, ATVs, go-
carts, golf-cars and grounds-keeping vehi-
cles. The Viking VI has higher ground clear-
ance and other features to handle rugged
terrain, and, as a result, can overturn in sit-
uations where some vehicles may not. This
would include vehicles made primarily for
pavement, roads, improved paths, or
grounds-keeping. If you do not use care in
maneuvering the Viking VI, you can cause it
to roll over even on flat, open areas.
Doing things with a Viking VI that some peo-
ple do for thrills in other vehicles [such as
sideways sliding, skidding, fishtailing (rear-
wheel sliding), or donuts] have led to side roll-
overs. These rollovers can result in crushed
limbs and other serious injuries or death to
drivers or passengers.
