OPERATOR SAFETY
Safe Riding Gear
Always wear clothing suited to the type of riding. ATV riding
requires special protective clothing for comfort and to reduce the
chance of injury:
1. Helmet
2. Your helmet is the most important piece of protective gear for
safe riding. An approved helmet can prevent a severe head
injury.
3. Eye protection
4. Do not depend on sunglasses for proper eye protection. A pair
of goggles or a helmet face shield oers the best protection for
your eyes. They should be kept clean and be a shatterproof
design.
5. Gloves
6. O-road style gloves with knuckle pads are the best for comfort
and protection.
7. Boots
8. The best footwear is a pair of strong over-the-calf boots with
heels, like moto-cross boots.
9. Clothing
10. Always wear long sleeves and long pants to protect arms and
legs. Riding pants with kneepads and a jersey with shoulder
pads provide the best protection.
