RIDING YOUR ATV
If you come to an obstacle that you cannot avoid, you may be able to cross over it
by using the following procedure.
1. If the obstacle is in front of you, approach at walking speed.
2. Rise up slightly on the footrests.
3. Pull up on the handlebar and apply a little throttle as the front wheels reach the obstacle.
4. Lean forward and release the throttle after the front wheels are over the
obstacle.
Remember that some obstacles are too high for your ATV or for your abilities. If you
are not sure that you can safely cross over an obstacle, back up and ride around the
obstacle.
WARNING
Skidding or sliding improperly.
You may lose control of this ATV.
You may also regain traction unexpectedly, which may cause the ATV to
overturn.
Learn to safely control skidding or sliding by practicing at low speeds and
on level, smooth terrain.
On extremely slippery surfaces, such as ice, go slowly and be very
cautious in order to reduce the chance of skidding or sliding out of control.
SKIDDING OR SLIDING
You may experience skidding or sliding when you are not braking. You may be
able to overcome it by using the techniques listed below.
If your front wheel skids:
Gain front wheel traction by reducing the throttle opening and leaning your body
slightly forward.
If your rear wheel skids:
If space permits, steer in the direction of the skid. Shift your body away from the
skid slightly. Avoid using the throttle or brakes until you regain directional control
of the vehicle.
