GUIDE FOR SAFE USE
Become familiar with the way the vehicle feels in low and high ranges first in two‐wheel
drive (2WD) and then in four‐wheel drive (4VVD) and four‐wheel drive with the differential
locked (01‐ FF. LOCK). Steering may take more effort in 4VVD with the differential locked
(DIFF. LOCK). Also practice driving in reverse.
Take the time to learn basic operation of the vehicle before attempting more difficult
maneuvers.
GETTING READY TO RIDE
Perform the Pre‐Operation Checks ( see page 56 ) . Follow the instructions starting
on (see page 69) to start the engine.
Once it has warmed up, you are ready to begin driving your vehicle.
TURNING
Use care in turns, turning the steering wheel too far or too fast can result in loss of control
or a rollover. Slow down before entering turns. When making tight turns from a standstill,
or at slow speeds, avoid sudden or hard acceleration. Driving aggressively or making
abrupt maneuvers even on flat, open areas can cause side rollovers. Avoid sideways sliding,
skidding, or fishtailing, and never do donuts. If you feel the UTV begin to slide sideways or
fishtail during a turn, steer into the direction of the slide, if possible, and gradually let off
the accelerator pedal to regain directional control and avoid rollover. For example, if you
feel the back of the vehicle start to slide to your right, steer to the right.
