RIDING THE VEHICLE To fully appreciate the pleasures and excitement of riding this vehicle, there are some basic rules and tips that you MUST follow. Some may be new to you while others may be common sense or obvious. Nonetheless, we ask that you take a few minutes to read this Operator's Guide completely before you operate this vehicle. Information in this Operator's Guide is limited.
– Check location of controls and ensure they work properly. – Verify if steering operates freely. – Activate throttle control lever several times to ensure it operates freely. It must return to idle position when released. – Activate the brake levers and brake pedal to make sure the brakes fully apply. Levers and pedal must fully return when released. – Ensure transmission lever is working then reset in NEUTRAL position. – Check drive chain for adjustment and lubrication.
Clothing Actual weather conditions should help you decide how to dress. However, it is important that the operator always wear the appropriate protective clothing and apparel, including an approved helmet, eye protection, boots, gloves, long sleeved shirt and pants. This type of clothing will provide you protection from some of the minor hazards you may encounter en route. Operator must never wear loose clothing such as a scarf that may get entangled in the vehicle or on tree branches and shrubs.
Carrying Loads Any load carried on the vehicle will affect the stability and control of the vehicle. For this reason, do not exceed the load limits of the vehicle's manufacturer. Always make sure the load is secured and cannot interfere with your proper control. Always be aware that the “load” may slide or fall off and create an accident. Avoid loads that may protrude sideways and get snagged or caught in brush or other obstacles. Avoid covering and obstructing the headlamp or taillight with the cargo.
Always keep a safe distance from other riders. Your judgment of speed, terrain conditions, weather, mechanical condition of your vehicle and the “trust in judgment” you have in others around you will help you make a better choice of appropriate safe distance. This vehicle, like any other motorized vehicle, cannot stop “on a dime”. Before you ride, tell someone where you are planning to travel and your expected time of return.
An operator who takes a vehicle off-road should always exercise the utmost care in selecting the safest path and keeping close watch on the terrain ahead of him. On no account should the vehicle be operated by anyone who is not completely familiar with the driving instructions applicable to the vehicle, nor should it be operated on steep or treacherous terrain.
Side Hilling Whenever possible, such operation should be avoided. If necessary, do so with extreme caution. Side hilling on steep inclines could result in rollover. In addition, slippery or unfirm surfaces could result in uncontrollable side sliding. Do not attempt to turn the vehicle downhill with the slide. Avoid all objects or depressions that will intensify the raising of one side of the vehicle higher than the other, thus causing rollover.
V00A0UL Even though there is an adequate suspensions system on this vehicle there are “washboard” or rough terrain conditions that will make you feel uncomfortable and even cause back injury. “Posting” or riding in a crouched position will often be required. Slow down and allow your flexed legs to absorb impact. This vehicle is not designed for riding on roads or highways. In most places it is an illegal practice.
Water can be a unique hazard. If it is too deep the vehicle may “float” and topple. Check the water depth and current before you attempt to cross any water. Water should not go above the footrest. Be wary of slippery surfaces such as rocks, grass, logs, etc., both in the water and on its banks. A loss of traction may occur. Do not attempt to enter the water at high speed. The water will act as a brake and could throw you. V00A0VL Water will affect the braking ability of your vehicle.
Sand and riding on sand dunes or on snow is another unique experience but there are some basic precautions that should be observed. Wet, deep or fine sand/snow may create a loss of traction and cause the vehicle to slide, drop off or become “bogged” down. If this occurs look for a firmer base. Again, the best advice is to slow down and be watchful of the conditions. When riding in sand dunes it is advisable to equip the vehicle with an antenna type safety flag.
Obstacles in the “trail” should be traversed with caution. This includes loose rocks, fallen trees, slippery surfaces, fences, posts, and embankments and depressions. You should avoid them whenever possible. Remember that some obstacles are too large or dangerous to cross and should be avoided. Small rocks or fallen trees may be safely crossed... approach at a 90° angle. Stand on the footrests while keeping your knees flexed. Adjust speed without losing momentum and do not “gun” the throttle.
Downhill Keep your body weight rearwards. Apply the brake gradually to prevent skidding. Do not “coast” down the slope using solely engine compression or in neutral gear. V00A0YL Side Hilling This is one of the most risky types of riding since it may drastically change the balance of the vehicle. It should be avoided wherever possible. If it is necessary to do so however, it is important that you ALWAYS keep your body weight on the upside of the slope...
V00A0ZL Routine Maintenance Once your ride completed, it is wise to remove any build up of snow, ice, mud and grime. Not only will this help you keep your vehicle longer and in good condition for resale but will eliminate potential hazards the next time you use the vehicle. Wash your vehicle in warm soapy water then allow it to dry. (A towel may help). Do not wash your vehicle outside during freezing weather. Apply appropriate lubrication as described in the MAINTENANCE section.
HANG TAG This vehicle comes with a hang tag and labels containing important safety information. Any person who rides this vehicle should read and understand this information before riding.
ON-PRODUCT LABELS The following labels are on your vehicle and they should be considered permanent parts of the vehicle. If missing or damaged, they can be replaced free of charge.
