EBU00216Parking on a slopewAvoid parking on hills or other inclines.
Parking on a hill or other incline could cause
the ATV to roll out of control, increasing the
chance of an accident. If you must park on
an incline, place the machine transversely
across the incline, apply the parking brake,
and block the front and rear wheels with
rocks or other objects. Do not park the ATV
at all on hills that are so steep you could not
walk up them easily.1. Bring the machine to a stop by applying the
brakes.
2. Stop the engine.
3. With the rear brake applied, apply the park-
ing brake.

During operation
Always keep your feet on the footboards during
operation. Otherwise your feet may contact the
rear wheels.wAlways keep both hands on the handlebars
and both feet on the footboards of your ATV
during operation. Removing even one hand
or foot can reduce your ability to control the
ATV or could cause you to lose your balance
and fall off of the ATV. If you remove a foot
from a footboard, your foot or leg may come
into contact with the rear wheels, which
could injure you or cause an accident.

turn.wNever attempt stunts, such as wheelies or
jumps. Don't try to show off.

With the engine idling, return the starter knob to
the closed position and shift the drive select
lever into the forward position. Then release the
parking brake. Apply the throttle slowly and
smoothly. The centrifugal clutch will engage and
you will start to accelerate. If the throttle is
applied too abruptly, the front wheels may lift off
the ground resulting in a loss of directional con-
trol. Avoid higher speeds until you are thorough-
ly familiar with the operation of your ATV.
When slowing down or stopping, release the
throttle and apply the brakes smoothly and
evenly. Improper use of the brakes can cause
the tires to lose traction, reducing control and
increasing the possibility of an accident.

TURNING YOUR ATV
To achieve maximum traction while riding off-
road, the two rear wheels are mounted solidly
on one axle and turn together at the same
speed. Therefore, unless the wheel on the
inside of the turn is allowed to slip or lose some
traction, the ATV will resist turning. A special
turning technique must be used to allow the ATV
to make turns quickly and easily. It is essential
that this skill be learned first at low speed.wAlways follow proper procedures for turning
as described in this Owner's Manual.
Practice turning at low speeds before
attempting to turn at faster speeds. Do not
turn at speeds too fast for your skills or the
conditions.

As you approach a curve, slow down and begin
to turn the handlebars in the desired direction.
As you do so, put your weight on the footboard
to the outside of the turn (opposite your desired
direction) and lean your upper body into the
turn. Use the throttle to maintain an even speed
through the turn. This maneuver will let the
wheel on the inside of the turn slip slightly,
allowing the ATV to make the turn properly.
This procedure should be practiced at slow
speed many times in a large off-road area with
no obstacles. If an incorrect technique is used,
your ATV may continue to go straight. If the ATV
doesn't turn, come to a stop and then practice
the procedure again. If the riding surface is slip-
pery or loose, it may help to position more of
your weight over the front wheels by moving for-
ward on the seat.
Once you have learned this technique you
should be able to perform it at higher speeds or
in tighter curves.
1. Lean towards inside of turn.
2. Support your weight on the outer footrest.1. Se pencher vers l’intérieur du virage.
2. S’appuyer sur le repose-pied externe.1. Inclínese hacia el interior del giro.
2. Descanse su peso en el descansapie externo.
