Operator Safety

WARNING

POTENTIAL HAZARD
Carrying a passenger on an ATV.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Carrying a passenger greatly reduces the oper-

ator's ability to balance and control the ATV,

which could cause an accident and injury to the

operator and/or passenger.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Never carry a passenger. The purpose of the

long seat is to allow the operator to shift position

as needed during operation. It is not intended for carrying passengers.

WARNING

POTENTIAL HAZARD
Operating an ATV on paved surfaces, including

sidewalks, paths, parking lots, and driveways.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
ATV tires are designed for off-road use. Operat-

ing on paved surfaces may adversely affect the

handling of the ATV and could result in loss of

control, accident, and/or injury.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Avoid operating the ATV on pavement. If it's

unavoidable, travel slowly and avoid sudden turns or stops.
