Always follow the age recommendation:
- A child under 16 years old should never operate an ATV with engine size greater than 90cc.
Never allow a child under age 16 to operate an ATV without adult supervision, and never allow
continued use of an ATV by a child if he or she does not have the abilities to operate it safely.

proper for the terrain, visibility and operating conditions, and your experience.
Never attempt wheel, jump, or other stunt.
Always inspect your ATV each time you use it to make sure it is in safe operating condition. Always
follow the inspection and maintenance procedures and schedules described in this manual.
Always keep both hands on the handlebars and both feet on the footboards of the ATV during
operation.
Always go slowly and be extra careful when operating on unfamiliar terrain. Always be alert to
changing terrain conditions when operating the ATV.
5

Always follow proper procedures for turning as described in this manual. Practice turning at low
speeds before attempting to turn at faster speeds. Do not turn at excessive speed.
Never operate the ATV on hills.
Always follow proper procedures for climbing slopes as described in this manual. Check the
terrain carefully before you start up any slope. Shift your weight forward. Never open the throttle
suddenly. Never go over the top of a slope at high speed.
Always follow proper procedures for going down slopes and for braking on slopes as described in
this manual. Check the terrain carefully before you start down any slope. Shift your weight
backward. Never go down a slope at high speed. Avoid going down slope at an angle that would
cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. Go straight down the slope where possible.

practicing at low speeds and on level, smooth terrain. On extremely slippery surfaces, such as
ice, go slowly and be very cautious in order to reduce the chance of skidding or sliding out of
control.
Never operate an ATV in fast flowing water or in water deeper than that recommended in this
manual. Remember that wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. Test your brakes after
leaving water. If necessary, apply them several times to let friction dry out the linings.
Always use the size and type tires specified in this manual. Always maintain proper tire pressure
as described in this manual.
Never modify an ATV through improper installation or use of accessories.
Never exceed the stated load capacity for an ATV. Cargo should be properly distributed and
