RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

Always follow proper procedures for going down hills and

for braking on hills as described in this manual. Check the

terrain carefully before you start down any hill. Shift your

weight backward. Never go down a hill at high speed.

Avoid going down a hill at an angle that would cause the

vehicle to lean sharply to one side. Go straight down the

hill where possible.

Always follow proper procedures for crossing the side of a

hill as described in this manual. Avoid hills with excessively

slippery or loose surfaces. Shift your weight to the uphill

side of the ATV. Never attempt to turn the ATV around

on any hill until you have mastered the turning technique

described in this manual on level ground. Avoid crossing

the side of a steep hill if possible.

Always use proper procedures if you stall or roll backwards

when climbing a hill. To avoid stalling, use proper gear

and maintain a steady speed when climbing a hill. If you

stall or roll backwards, follow the special procedure for

braking described in this manual. Dismount on the uphill

side or to a side if pointed straight uphill. Turn the ATV

around and remount, following the procedure described

in this manual.

This ATV is not equipped with a reverse gear. Proceed

with caution when moving the unit backward.

Never exceed the stated load capacity for an ATV.

The combined weight of the rider and any accessories

must never exceed the vehicle’s load capacity of 198 lbs.

(90 kg). Take into account the load being carried when

operating the ATV as it may change the way the unit oper-

ates.

Never ride alone. This ATV can go 20 miles (32,2 km) in

an hour, which may be farther than you can walk back in

the event of a problem with the ATV.

We believe in conservation and protection of the earth’s

natural resources. We encourage every vehicle owner

and operator to do the same by obeying posted signs and

riding only in areas designated and approved for off-road

recreational use.
