Operator Safety
• Always be careful of skidding or sliding.
On slippery surfaces like ice, travel
slowly and use extra caution to reduce the
chance of skidding or sliding out of con-
trol.
• Always check for obstacles before oper-
ating in a new area. Never attempt to
operate over large obstacles, such as
rocks or fallen trees. Always follow
proper procedures when operating over
obstacles as described in this manual.
• Avoid operating the ATV through deep or
fast-flowing water. If it's unavoidable,
travel slowly, balance your weight care-
fully, avoid sudden movements, and
maintain a slow and steady forward
motion. Do not make sudden turns or
stops, and do not make sudden throttle
changes.
• Wet brakes may have reduced stopping
ability. Test the brakes after leaving
water. If necessary, apply them lightly
several times to allow friction to dry out
the pads.
