USER NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER
The System consists of many moving parts, including
transmission wheels. If an object lodges itself or becomes
jammed into the System and blocks the track, it is mandatory to
stop the engine and the vehicle and apply the security brake
before removing object said. By avoiding to do so, the user
exposes himself to sudden movement of the ATV or to
breakage of a part or component coming from the System,
which could cause severe injuries. It is also very important to
wear full length clothing and always avoid hanging or stringy
accessories.
Driving an ATV equipped with such a System requires particular
precautions and a knowledge of proper driving techniques of
such vehicles. An evaluation by the user of the conditions and
terrain (state of the ground, grade of hill, density of snow, etc.)
is equally essential. An ATV equipped with a System cannot
compete and/or be used to perform stunts, acrobatics or other
exploits, as these could result in loss of control or severe inju-
ries.
Insufficient knowledge of an ATV during down hill riding, climbs
and crossing of obstacles and turns can result in tipping or roll
over, and can cause severe injuries.
Carrying a passenger, a load or attaching a tow can cause the
ATV to be less stable, and affect driveability. Unless otherwise
prescribed by law and by the ATV manufacturer, you must not
carry a passenger, loads or tow any objects.
The installation of a System:
• Increases ground clearance.
• Changes the center of gravity.
• Increases the ATV width and weight.
• Reduces ground pressure.
These parameters will effectively change driving characteristics
of an ATV equipped with the System.
Consequentially, it is highly recommended that the user adapts
his driving style in function of the new characteristics mentioned
above. The driver must always use caution when he crosses
obstacles, circulates through narrow paths, meets vehicles
coming in the opposing direction, etc.
As it was designed, the System will considerably reduce the
ATV top speed and can falsify the speedometer. Generally, the
System transmission wheel diameter is less than that of the tire.
Therefore, the vehicle speed will be less than that actually dis-
played. Whether the ATV is equipped or not with the System,
users must always adapt the speed to actual driving conditions.
Users must never exceed speed limits or drive faster than their
