NOTCE TO USERS
13. LOOSE CLOTHING, LONG HAIR, OR ARTICLES WORN BY ANY OPERATOR OR
PASSENGER MUST BE FULLY CONTAINED OR COVERED TO PREVENT THEM FROM
POSSIBLY BEING CAUGHT IN ROTATING PARTS OF THE VEHICLE OR THE
SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT WHILE RIDING. FAILURE TO OBEY COULD ENDANGER
THE PERSONAL SAFETY OF THE OPERATOR OR PASSENGER.
14. DO NOT PLACE HANDS, FEET, OR ANY OTHER PART OF THE BODY OR ANY
CLOTHING NEAR THE ENGINE, MUFFLER, WHEELS, CHAIN AND OTHER ROTATING
PARTS OF THE VEHICLE WHILE RIDING OR RUNNING THE ENGINE. Caution must be
used in performing required maintenance on or near an operating engine. Special
caution should be taken after the engine has been running, since the engine and other
drive components may be extremely hot.
15. Wet, slippery, rough, or steep terrain is potentially dangerous and may result in
injury if proper caution in not observed. Slow speeds are required to safely operate this
vehicle under those conditions. The operator must use mature judgment, skill, and
experience to choose a speed suitable for the terrain and riding conditions.
16. The governor settings for this vehicle’s engine must not be tampered with, altered,
or changed. The governor is set by the engine manufacturer and limits the maximum
speed of the engine (and vehicle) and protects the engine from damage. Excessive
speeds are potentially dangerous to the operator/passenger, and the engine.
17. Each time before using this vehicle, the fuel supply should checked. The fuel tank
should never be filled while the engine is running or while the engine is hot. Do not fill
tank in a closed area such as a garage, while smoking, or in the vacinity of an open flame.
Do not overfill the tank. There should not be any fuel in the filler neck. Replace cap tightly
to prevent spillage of fuel and potential fire hazard. After filling tank, move the vehicle at
least 15 feet away from the spot of filling before starting.
18. If the vehicle should start making unusual noise or vibrating abnormally, the
engine should be stopped and the spark plug wire disconnected. The vehicle should then
be checked for damaged. Excessive noise or vibration is generally a warning of loose or
worn parts.
