Riding On Slippery Surfaces
Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet trails or
loose gravel, or during cold freezing weather, special atten-
tion must be paid to prevent vehicle turnover. Always:
1. Slow down when entering slippery areas.
2. Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and avoiding
quick, sharp turns which can cause skids.
3. Correct a skid by turning the handlebars in the directio n of the
skid and shifting your body weight forward.
4. Driving with Demand 4 Drive (All Wheel Drive) engaged can as-
sist in controlling the vehicle in slippery areas.
5. Never apply brakes during a skid. Complete loss of ATV control
can result.
6. Do not operate on excessively slippery surface s if possible to
avoid.
7. Always reduce speed and use additional caution.
