To decelerate
When slowing down or stopping, release the throt-
tle and apply the brakes smoothly and evenly. As
you slow down, shift to a lower gear. Be sure that
the engine has sufficiently slowed before engaging
a lower gear. Improper use of the brakes or shifting
can cause the tires to lose traction, reducing con-
trol and increasing the possibility of an accident.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Opening the throttle before releasing the
shift pedal.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
The ATV could wheelie. This would increase
the chance of an accident, including over-
turn.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Release the shift pedal before opening the
throttle. Open the throttle gradually.
