Driving Safely
Making Turns
Your ATV is equipped with a solid
rear axle, which drives both rear
wheels equally at all times. This
means that the wheel on the outside
of the turn must travel a greater
distance than the inside wheel when
turning and the inside tire must slip
traction slightly. To turn, steer in the
direction of the turn, leaning your
upper body to the inside of the turn
while supporting your weight on the
outer footrest. This technique alters
the balance of traction between the
rear wheels, allowing the turn to be
made smoothly. The same leaning
technique should be used for turning
in reverse.
NOTE: Practice making turns at slow speeds before attempting to
turn at faster speeds.
WARNING
Turning at sharp angles or at excessive speeds can result in
vehicle overturn and lead to serious injury. Avoid turning at sharp
angles. Never turn at high speeds.
