Safety Training
When you purchased your new ATV, your dealer offered a hands-on safety training course that covers
all aspects of vehicle safety. You were also provided with printed materials that explain safe operating
procedures. You should review this information on a regular basis. If you purchased a used ATV from a
party other than a dealer, you can request safety training from any authorized dealer.
