Operation Warnings
n Check surroundings to verify clear operating area
It’s important to make sure there’s a clear area all around the
snowmobile, including an area clear of bystanders. Some sideways
movement is possible when starting out, and debris may be thrown by
the track. Teach the operator to check the operating area before riding.
n Sit properly on the snowmobile
Improper operator position on the snowmobile can be the source of
serious injury. Operating a snowmobile does require skill and balance
for proper control, and an improper position can seriously reduce the
child’s ability to control the snowmobile. The riding position may
vary as the operator becomes more skilled, but under most conditions
the proper position is to be seated with both feet on the running boards,
in a comfortable position for proper throttle, brake and steering control.
WARNING
Never hold the snowmobile up or
stand behind it while warming up the
track. A loose track or flying debris
could cause serious personal injury
or death.
This snowmobile is propelled by a revolving track, which must be
partially exposed for proper operation. Serious injuries may be caused
by operator carelessness, resulting in hands, feet, hair or clothing
becoming entangled in the track. Teach your child to respect this
machine and all t he moving parts. Stress that being properly seated
keeps the child clear of the track.
