SAFETY
Failure to Inspect Before Operating
Failure to inspect and verify that the vehicle is in safe operating
condition before operating increases the risk of an accident.
Always inspect your BRUTUS before each use to make sure it's in
safe operating condition.
Always follow all inspection and maintenance procedures and
schedules described in the owner's manual.
Exposure to Exhaust
Engine exhaust fumes are poisonous and can cause loss of
consciousness or death in a short time. Never start the engine or let it
run in an enclosed area.
The engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Operate this
vehicle only outdoors or in well-ventilated areas.
Operating a Damaged Vehicle
Operating a damaged vehicle can result in an accident. After any
overturn or accident, have a qualified service dealer inspect the entire
machine for possible damage, including (but not limited to) brakes,
throttle and steering systems.
Operating at Excessive Speeds
Operating this vehicle at excessive speeds increases the operator's
risk of losing control. Always operate at a speed that's appropriate for
the terrain, the visibility and operating conditions, your skills and your
passengers’ skills.
Turning Improperly
Turning improperly could cause loss of traction, loss of control,
accident or overturn. Always follow proper procedures for turning.
Never turn abruptly or at sharp angles. Never turn at high speeds.
Practice turning at slow speeds before attempting to turn at faster
speeds.
Operating on Pavement
This vehicle's tires are designed for off-road use only, not for use on
pavement. Operating this vehicle on paved surfaces (including
sidewalks, paths, parking lots and driveways) may adversely affect
the handling of the vehicle and could result in loss of control and
accident or overturn.
Avoid operating the vehicle on pavement. If it's unavoidable, travel
slowly and avoid sudden turns or stops.
