SPECIAL SAFETY MESSAGES
WARNING
– Never operate on excessively rough, slippery or loose terrain until you
have learned and practiced the skills necessary to control this vehicle on
such terrain. Always be especially cautious on these kinds of terrain.
– Always follow proper procedures for turning as described further in this
Operator's Guide. Practice turning at low speeds before attempting to
turn at faster speeds. Do not turn at excessive speed.
– Never operate this vehicle on hills too steep for the vehicle or for your
abilities. Practice on smaller hills before attempting larger hills.
– Always follow proper procedures for climbing hills as described further
in this Operator's Guide. Check the terrain carefully before you start up
any hill. Never climb hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
Shift your weight forward. Never open the throttle suddenly or make
sudden gear changes. Never go over the top of any hill at high speed.
– Always follow proper procedures for going down hills and for braking
on hills as described further in this Operator's Guide. Check the terrain
carefully before you start down any hill. Shift your weight backward.
Never go down a hill at high speed. Avoid going down a hill at an angle
that would cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. Go straight
down the hill where possible.
– Always follow proper procedures for crossing the side of a hill as de-
scribed further in this Operator's Guide. Avoid hills with excessively
slippery or loose surfaces. Shift your weight to the uphill side of the
vehicle. Never attempt to turn the vehicle around on any hill until you
have mastered the turning technique described in this Operator's Guide
on level ground. Avoid crossing the side of a steep hill if possible.
– Always use proper procedures if you stall or roll backwards when climb-
ing a hill. To avoid stalling, use proper gear and maintain a steady speed
when climbing a hill. If you stall or roll backwards, follow the special
procedure for braking described in this Operator's Guide. Dismount
on the uphill side or to a side if pointed straight uphill. Turn the vehicle
around and remount, following the procedure described further in this
Operator's Guide.
– Always check for obstacles before operating in a new area. Never at-
tempt to operate over large obstacles, such as large rocks or fallen trees.
Always follow proper procedures when operating over obstacles as
described further in this Operator's Guide.
– Always be careful when skidding or sliding. Learn to safely control skid-
ding or sliding by practicing at low speeds and on level smooth terrain.
On extremely slippery surfaces, such as ice, go slowly and be very cau-
tious in order to reduce the chance of skidding out of control.
– Never operate this vehicle in fast flowing water or in water deeper than
that specified in this Operator's Guide. Remember that wet brakes may
have reduced stopping ability. Test your brakes after leaving water. If
necessary, apply them several times to let friction dry out the pads.
