Rider Position (Forward Operation)
Your riding position and balance are the two basic principles of
making your snowm obile go where you want it to. When turning
on the side of a hill, you and your passenger must be ready to shift
body weight to help it turn in the desired direction. Operator and
passenger must never attempt this maneuvering by placing feet
outside of the vehicle. Experience will teach you how much lean
to put into turns at different speeds and how much you will have to
lean into a slope to maintain proper balance.
Generally, the riding position for best balance an d control is sitting.
However, the posting, kneeling or standing positions are also used
under certain conditions.
WARNING
Do not attempt any maneuvers if they are beyo nd your abili-
ties.
Sitting
Feet on the running boards, bod y midway back on seat is an ideal po-
sition when operating the snowmobile over familiar, smooth terrain.
Knees and hips should remain flexible to absorb shocks.
