TURNING THE VEHICLE
Both rear wheels drive equally at all times. This means that the outside wheel
must travel a greater distance than the inside wheel when turning, and the inside
tire must slip traction slightly.
1. Slow down.
2. Never turn quickly when carrying cargo.
3. Steer in the direction of the turn.
4. Keep both feet on the footrests.
5. Lean your upper body to the inside of the turn while supporting your weight
on the outer footrest. This technique alters the balance of traction between
the rear wheels, allowing the turn to be made smoothly. The same leaning
technique should be used for turning in reverse.
6. Practice making turns at slow speeds before attempting to turn at faster
speeds
WARNING
Turning improperly can result in vehicle overturn. Never turn abruptly or at
sharp angles. Never turn at high speeds.
DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES
Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet trails or loose gravel, or
during freezing weather, follow these precautions:
1. Do not operate on excessively rough, slippery or loose terrain.
2. Slow down when entering slippery areas.
3. Engage 4X4 before wheels begin to lose traction.
NOTICE
Severe damage to drive train may occur if the 4X4 is engaged while the wheels
are spinning. Allow the rear wheels to stop spinning before engaging 4X4, or
engage 4X4 before wheels begin to lose traction.
4. Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and avoiding quick, sharp
turns, which can cause skids.
5. Never apply the brakes during a skid. Correct a skid by turning the
handlebars in the direction of the skid and shifting your body weight forward.
