footrests, they could come into contact with the
wheels or other moving parts and lead to
accident or injury.
Always keep both hands on the handlebars
and both feet on the footrests of the ATV during
operation. A passenger should always be
seated in the passenger seat with both feet on the footrests and both hands on
the passenger grab handles at all times. The passenger should never hold on to
the operator.

Turning improperly could cause loss of
traction, loss of control, accident or
overturn.
Always follow proper procedures for
turning as described in the owner's
manual.
Practice turning at slow speeds before
attempting to turn at faster speeds.
Never turn at excessive speed.
Jumps and Stunts

specified for your ATV.
Always maintain proper tire pressure as
described in the owner's manual and on
safety labels.
Operating Over Obstacles
Improperly operating over obstacles could
cause loss of control or overturn.

obstacles. Avoid operating over large
obstacles such as rocks and fallen trees. If
unavoidable, use extreme caution and
always follow proper operating procedures
as outlined in this manual. See page 73.
Skidding or Sliding
Skidding or sliding can cause loss of control
or overturn (if tires regain traction
unexpectedly).
On slippery surfaces such as ice or loose
gravel, travel slowly and use extra caution
to reduce the chance of skidding or sliding.
Do not operate on excessively slippery
surfaces.
Operating a Damaged ATV

20
SAFETY
Safety Warnings
Operating Through Deep Water
Operating the ATV through deep or fastflowing water could cause the tires to float,

Avoid operating the ATV through deep or
fast-flowing water. If it's unavoidable to
enter water that exceeds the
recommended maximum depth (see page
72):
• Travel slowly.
• Balance your weight carefully.
• Avoid sudden movements.
• Maintain a slow and steady forward motion. Do not make sudden turns or
stops, and do not make sudden throttle changes.
Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the
brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving. The friction will help dry
out the pads.

cargo improperly may cause changes in
handling, which could cause loss of control
or an accident.
• Never exceed the stated load capacity for
this ATV.
• Cargo should be properly distributed and

Never operate the ATV on a frozen body of
water unless you have independently
verified that the ice is sufficiently thick to
support the weight and moving force of the
ATV, you and your cargo, together with any
other vehicles in your party. Variances in
snow depth and/or water currents may result
in uneven ice thickness. Always check with
local authorities and residents to confirm ice
conditions and thickness over your entire
route. ATV operators assume all risk
associated with ice conditions on frozen
bodies of water.
Poor Visibility
Operating the ATV in darkness or inclement weather could result in a collision or
accident, especially if operating on a road or street. This ATV is not equipped
with highway-approved lights. Operate this vehicle off-road only. Use caution
