Safety Alert
You should be aware that THIS VEHI-
CLE IS NOT A TOY AND CAN BE
HAZARDOUS TO OPERATE. This
vehicle handles differently from other
vehicles, including motorcycles and cars.
A collision or rollover can occur quickly,
even during what you think are routine
maneuvers such as turning, driving on
hills, and going over obstacles, if you fail
to take proper precautions.
TO AVOID SERIOUS
INJURY OR DEATH:
*Always read the Operator’s Manual
carefully and follow the operating
procedures described. Pay special
attention to the warnings contained in
the manual and on all labels.
*Always
wear the seat belt when oper-
ating or riding in this vehicle.
*Always
follow these age recommen-
dations:
• Operation of this vehicle is restricted
to people 16 years of age and older
who possess a valid driver’s license.
Passengers must be able to place both
feet flat on the floor while keeping
their back against the back of the seat
and the outboard passenger must hold
on to available hand hold.
* Never carry a passenger in the cargo
box of this vehicle.
* Never
operate this vehicle on a public
road, even a dirt or gravel one,
because you may not be able to avoid
colliding with other vehicles.
* Never
operate this vehicle without an
approved motorcycle helmet, eye
protection, boots, gloves, long pants
and a long-sleeved shirt or jacket.
*Never
consume alcohol or drugs
before or while operating this vehi-
cle.
*Never
operate this vehicle at exces-
sive speeds. Go at a speed which is
proper for the terrain, visibility con-
ditions, and your experience.
*Never
attempt to do wheelies, jumps,
or other stunts.
*Always
be careful when operating
this vehicle, especially when
approaching hills, turns, and obsta-
cles and when operating on unfamil-
iar or rough terrain.
*Never
operate this vehicle with the
cargo box lifted or removed.
*Never
operate this vehicle in fast
flowing water or in water deeper than
the floorboard.
*Never
operate this vehicle with the
ROPS removed. The ROPS provides
a structure helping to limit intrusions
by branches or other objects and may
reduce your risk of injury in acci-
dents.
*Never
put your hands or feet outside
the vehicle for any reason while the
vehicle is in motion. Do not hold onto
the ROPS or hip restraint bar. If you
think or feel the vehicle may tip, do
not put your hands or feet outside the
vehicle as they will not be able to pre-
vent the vehicle from tipping. Any
part of your body (arms, legs, or
head) outside the vehicle can be
crushed by passing objects, the vehi-
cle, or ROPS.
*Always
fasten occupant side
restraints prior to moving the vehicle.
