Practice for new Yamaha Wolverine
RMAX4 users
You should become familiar with the perfor-
mance characteristics of the vehicle in a
large, flat area that is free of obstacles and
other vehicles. Practice controlling the accel-
erator pedal, brakes, steering, and drive se-
lect lever. Drive at slow speeds with gradual
acceleration and turning. Practice smooth
throttle application. Practice slowing down
before turning. Practice maintaining a steady
throttle through the turn. Avoid higher speeds
until you are thoroughly familiar with the oper-
ation of your vehicle. Remember, driving ag-
gressively or making abrupt maneuvers even
on flat, open areas can cause side rollovers.
Become familiar with the way the vehicle feels
in low and high ranges, first in two-wheel
drive “2WD” and then in four-wheel drive
“4WD” and four-wheel drive with the differen-
tial locked “DIFF. LOCK”. Steering may take
more effort in four-wheel drive with the differ-
ential locked “DIFF. LOCK”. Also practice
driving in reverse.
Take the time to learn basic operation of the
vehicle before attempting more difficult ma-
neuvers.
