Select a large, flat area off-road to become fa-
miliar with your ATV. Make sure that this area
is free of obstacles and other riders. You
should practice control of the throttle, brakes,
shifting procedures, and turning techniques in
this area before trying more difficult terrain. Al-
ways avoid riding on paved surfaces: the ATV
is designed for off-road use only, and handling
maneuvers are more difficult to perform on
pavement.
Set the parking brake and follow the instruc-
tion on page 6-3 to start the engine. Once it has
warmed up you are ready to begin riding your
ATV. As you get on the ATV, be sure not to ac-
cidentally move the shift pedal. Remember
that the engine and exhaust pipe will be hot
when riding and afterwards; do not allow skin
or clothing to come in contact with these com-
ponents.
