9. Slow down. Control may be more difficult with a passenger on board. Allow
more time and distance for braking.
10. Ride to the ability of your passenger, instead of to your own ability. Avoid
unexpected or aggressive maneuvers that could cause a passenger to fall
from the vehicle.
11. Do not cross a hillside with a passenger on board.
12. Make sure the passenger understands the importance of "active riding."
When hillclimbing or performing maneuvers, a passenger should shift body
weight in the same manner in which the driver shifts body weight. For
example, the passenger should lean to the inside of a turn along with the
operator and should always lean uphill when climbing and descending hills.
TURNING THE VEHICLE
Your ATV is equipped with a solid rear
axle, which drives both rear wheels
equally at all times. This means that the
wheel on the outside of the turn 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 a passenger or 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 rollover. Never turn abruptly or at sharp
angles. Never turn at high speeds.
