7-39

With practice, over a period of time, skill at
controlled sliding can be developed. The ter-
rain should be chosen carefully before at-
tempting such maneuvers, since both stability
and control are reduced. Bear in mind that
sliding maneuvers should always be avoided
on extremely slippery surfaces such as ice,
since all control may be lost.

WARNING

POTENTIAL HAZARD 
Skidding or sliding improperly. 
WHAT CAN HAPPEN 
You may lose control of this ATV. You
may also regain traction unexpectedly,
which may cause the ATV to overturn. 
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD 
Learn to safely control skidding or slid-
ing 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.
