BRAKING
To stop the ATV, first release the throt-
tle lever. Next, apply the front and rear
brakes evenly and at the same time.
As vehicle speed decreases, shift
down through the gears.
WARNING
Opening the throttle suddenly can
be hazardous.
The front wheels can lift off the
ground and cause loss of control
of the ATV.
Always open the throttle gradually
when you accelerate.
WARNING
Shifting incorrectly can be hazard-
ous.
Downshifting at too high of a
speed can cause sudden slowing
and may pitch the rider forward.
Also, engine and drivetrain dam-
age can occur if you do not shift
correctly.
Slow down before downshifting
and always release the throttle
every time you shift gears.
WARNING
Braking while turning the ATV can
be hazardous.
Use of the brake when turning
could cause the ATV to slide or
roll over.
Use the brakes to slow down
before you begin to turn.
WARNING
Braking hard on slippery surfaces
can be hazardous.
The ATV can skid and go out of
control if you brake too hard.
Apply the brakes lightly and with
care on slippery surfaces.
WARNING
Operating the parking brake lock
when the ATV is moving can be
hazardous.
The rear wheels can lock, causing
a skid and an accident.
Use the parking brake only after
you stop the ATV.
