BASIC GUIDE FOR SAFE USE
EBU31961As a Viking owner you are responsible for the
safe and proper operation of this vehicle.
Read this chapter and review the safety in-
structions in Chapter 2 before operating the
vehicle. Use these chapters and the labels on
the vehicle to instruct new operators and pas-
sengers. Do not allow anyone else to operate
the vehicle or ride as a passenger if you are
unsure that he/she is willing and able to follow
these instructions.
WARNING
EWB03340Follow these instructions to reduce your
risk of an accident and to reduce the risk
of serious injury or death in the event of an
accident.
EBU33311KNOW YOUR VEHICLEThis off-road vehicle will handle and maneuver
differently from cars, ATVs, go-carts, golf-cars
and grounds-keeping vehicles. The Viking has
higher ground clearance and other features to
handle rugged terrain, and, as a result, can
overturn in situations where some vehicles
may not. This would include vehicles made
primarily for pavement, roads, improved
paths, or grounds-keeping. If you do not use
care in maneuvering the Viking, you can cause
it to roll over even on flat, open areas.
Doing things with a Viking that some people
do for thrills in other vehicles (such as side-
ways sliding, skidding, back-wheel sliding, or
donuts) have led to side rollovers. These roll-
overs can result in crushed limbs and other
serious injuries or death to drivers or passen-
gers.
As the owner/operator, it is your responsibility
to protect yourself and your passengers from
accidents, including rollovers. The Viking has
