SAFETY WARNING
To fully appreciate the pleasures and
excitement of riding this vehicle, there
are some basic rules and tips that you
should follow. Some may be new to
you while others may be common
sense or obvious. Irrespective, we
ask that you take a few minutes to
read this Operator's Guide completely
before you operate this vehicle.
InformationinthisOperator's Guide
is limited. It is strongly recommend-
ed that you obtain further information
and training from your local authori-
ties, ATV clubs or a recognized ATV
training organization such as Specialty
Vehicle Institute of America (SVIA) or
the Canada Safety Council (CSC).
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission and all ATV manufac-
turers do not recommended anyone
under the age of 16 to ride an ATV
having an engine higher than 90 cc.
For the child's safety, we strongly
recommend you also follow and en-
force this recommendation. You are
the sole judge of a rider's capability
to understand the risks and operate a
vehicle safely.
Persons with cognitive or physical im-
pairments or who are high risk takers
have an increased exposure to over-
turns or collisions which may result in
injury including death.
Become completely familiar with the
operational controls and the general
operation of the vehicle before ven-
turing into off road conditions. Prac-
tice driving in a suitable area free of
hazards and feel the response of each
control. Drive at low speeds. High-
er speeds require greater experience,
knowledge and suitable riding condi-
tions.
Not all vehicles are the same. Each
has its own unique performance char-
acteristics, controls and features.
Each will ride and handle differently.
Never assume that the vehicle
will go everywhere safely. Sudden
changes in terrain caused by holes,
depressions, banks, softer or harder
ground or other irregularities may
cause the vehicle to topple or become
unstable. To avoid this, slow down
and always observe the terrain ahead.
If the vehicle does begin to topple or
tipover, it is usually the best advice to
immediately get off... AWAY from the
direction of the tipover!
