RIDING YOUR VEHICLE
club does not exist in your area, help
to start one. Group riding and club ac-
tivities provide a pleasurable, social
experience. Never use this vehicle
with drugs or alcohol, or tired or ill.
Always keep a safe distance from
other riders. Your judgment of speed,
terrain conditions, weather, mechan-
ical condition of your vehicle and the
“trust in judgment” you have in others
around you will help you make a better
choice of appropriate safe distance.
This vehicle, like any other motorized
vehicle, cannot stop “on a dime”.
Before you ride, tell someone where
you are planning to travel and your ex-
pected time of return.
Depending on the length of your ride,
carry additional tools or emergency
equipment. Find out where you can
get additional gasoline. Be prepared
for the possible conditions you may
encounter. An emergency first aid kit
should always be a consideration.
Environment
One of the benefits of this vehicle is
that it can take you off the beaten path
away from most communities. How-
ever, you should always respect na-
ture and the rights of others to enjoy
it. Do not ride in environmentally sen-
sitive areas. Do not drive over forest
crops or shrubs, nor cut down trees
or take down fencing, nor spin your
wheels and destroy the terrain. “Tread
Lightly”.
This vehicle can cause OHV wildfires
if debris builds up near the exhaust
or other engine hot spots and ignites
then falls off into dry grass. Avoid rid-
ing in wet areas, through muskeg or
tall grass, where debris can build up.
Should you ride in those areas, inspect
and remove all debris from your en-
gine and hot spots. Refer to
MAINTE-
NANCE
section for details.
Chasing wildlife is in many areas il-
legal. Wildlife can die of exhaustion
after being chased by a motorized ve-
hicle. If you encounter animals on the
trail, stop and observe quietly and with
caution. It will be one of the better
memories of your life.
Observe the rule... “what you take in,
carry out”. Do not litter. Do not start
campfires unless you have permission
to do so, and then only away from dry
areas. The hazards you may create on
the trail may cause injury to others or
yourself, even at a later date.
Respect farm lands. Always obtain the
permission of the landowner before
riding on private land. Respect crops,
farm animals and property lines.
Finally, do not pollute streams, lakes or
rivers and do not modify the engine or
exhaust system, or remove any of its
components as it will alter the vehicle
emissions.
