SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH
Can result if you do not follow these instructions:
• The minimum recommended driving age for this vehicle is 16 years.
• Never operate this vehicle without wearing an approved motorcycle helmet
that fits properly.
• Wear eye protection (goggle or a face shield), gloves, over-the-ankle boots,
long-sleeved shirt or jacket, and long pants.
• Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating this vehicle.
• Never attempt jumps or other stunts.
• Never operate at speeds too fast for your skills or the conditions. Always go at
a speed that is proper for the terrain, visibility, operating conditions, and your
experience.
• Always inspect your vehicle each time you use it to be sure it is in safe
operating condition.
• Never operate on excessively rough, slippery, or loose terrain until you have
learned and practiced the skills necessary to control the vehicle on such
terrain. Always be cautious on these kinds of terrain.
• Always follow the inspection and maintenance procedures as well as the
schedules described in this manual.
• Never operate on hills that are slippery or ones where you will not be able to
see safely far enough ahead of you. Never go over the top of a hill at speed if
you cannot see what is on other side.
• Always keep both hands, arms, feet, and legs inside the vehicle at all times
during operation. Keep your feet on the floorboard. Never hold onto the
enclosure, otherwise, you could be injured.
• Always keep both hands on the steering wheel when driving.
• Always go slowly and be careful when operating on unfamiliar terrain. Always
be alert to changing terrain conditions when driving the vehicle.
• Never wrap your thumbs and fingers around the steering wheel. This is
particularly important when driving in rough terrain. The front wheels will
move right and left as they respond to the terrain, and this movement will
be felt in the steering wheel. A sudden jolt could wrench the steering wheel
around, and your thumbs or fingers could be injured if they are in the way of
the steering wheel spokes.
• Never turn at excessive speed. Practice turning at slow speeds before
attempting to turn at faster speeds. Do not attempt turns on steep inclines.
• Always follow proper procedures for going uphill. If you lose control and
cannot continue up a hill, back down the hill with the engine in reverse
gear. Use engine braking to help you go slowly. If necessary, use the brakes
gradually to help you go slowly.
• Never operate the vehicle on hills that are too steep. Go straight up and down
hills where possible.
