OPERATING ON FROZEN BODIES OF WATER
Never operate the Tractor on a frozen body of water.
HANDLING GASOLINE
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive under certain conditions.
Always exercise extreme caution whenever handling gasoline.
Always refuel with the engine stopped, and outdoors or in a well ventilated
area.
Do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks in or near the area where
refueling is performed or where gasoline is stored.
Do not overfill the tank. Do not fill the tank neck.
If gasoline spills on your skin or clothing, immediately wash it off with soap
and water and change clothing.
STALLING WHILE CLIMBING A HILL
Stalling, rolling backwards or improperly dismounting while climbing a hill could
cause a rollover.
Always maintain a steady speed when climbing a hill.
Always engage ADC mode (if equipped) before ascending or descending a
hill.
If all forward speed is lost:
Lean forward to keep body weight uphill. A passenger should also lean uphill.
Apply the brakes.
Lock the parking brake when fully stopped.
Dismount on the uphill side of the vehicle, or on the left if the vehicle is
pointing straight uphill. Have a passenger dismount first, then the operator
may dismount.
Turn the ATV around and remount, following the procedure described in the
owner's manual.
If the ATV begins rolling downhill:
Keep operator and passenger body weight uphill.
Never apply engine power.
Never apply the rear brake while rolling backwards. Apply the single-lever
brake gradually.
When fully stopped, apply the rear brake as well, and then lock the parking
brake.
