SAFE OPERATION 1-1
SAFE OPERATION
All operators, including experienced UTV drivers or
passengers, should carefully read and fully
understand this Users Manual, and operate strictly
as the manual states in order to achieve the best
performance and avoid accidents. Everyone who
uses your UTV should be trained on how to
operate the UTV and be required to read this
manual before operation.
1. Safety Instructions:
1. Only start and operate the vehicle after you
have finished reading this manual.
2. Pay close attention to the warning and caution
labels on the UTV.
3. Understand completely and learn to use the
safety devices (roll-over protective structure,
seat belts), and never change the original
safety devices. If the safety devices are
damaged, consult your local dealer for
replacement.Always use seat belts.
①Roll-over protective structure；
②Seat belts；
4. Do not wear loose articles of clothing during
operation, as these can be drawn into moving
parts on the vehicle and could cause a severe
injury to occur.
You should always wear protective equipment,
such as helmet, boots, eye protection, ear
protection, and gloves etc.
5. Only a qualified driver with driving license
should operate this UTV. Never operate after
drinking alcohol, using drugs or controlled
substances, or while fatigued.
6. Always perform the pre-operation checks as
following:
1) Check seat belts for wear or damage, if
necessary, replace it.
2) Check brakes, throttle, brake pedal and
other mechanical parts for proper operation.
If you discover any irregularities, replace
related parts as necessary. Periodically
check the fittings and fasteners.
3) Check engine oil level and engine coolant
level.
4) Check that the UTV is equipped to handle
the surroundings.
5) Check and keep vehicle clean. Sludge,
grease and debris can cause a fire and
severe injury.
7. Passenger quantity and loading:
1) Only the driver and one passenger inside
cab. It is suggested that children under age
of 5 not be allowed as a passenger.
2) Single-row vehicle’s loading limit is 660lbs
(300KG). Reduce the loading weight
according to road conditions. Never exceed
the weight limits for operation.
8. Never allow unauthorized persons to repair
this UTV. This may affect vehicle performance
and cause injury.

SAFE OPERATION 1-2
2. Operation
1. Start the engine only in an open ventilated
area. Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless
and is emitted from the engine and can cause
death in areas with poor ventilation .
2. Never start the vehicle or operate the gear
selector unless seated in the driver’s seat.
3. Never start the engine until the select lever is
placed in “N” position and the brake is in the
brake position.
4. The driver and passenger shall always wear
their seatbelt while the vehicle is being
operated.
5. Operators of the UTV should not wear
earphones.
6. Use the proper trailer hitch to haul cargo,
otherwise, serious injury or death can happen.
①Trailer Hitch
7. Do not accelerate quickly when starting the
engine, especially driving on rough terrain as
this can cause injury or death. Press the
accelerator pedal slowly.
8. Drive at slow speeds before braking.
9. When the differential is unlocked (DIFF.LOCK
is off) the front/rear wheels can turn at
different speeds to assist in the stability of the
vehicle.
10. Never drive over terrain such as a ditch, a hole,
dams, excessive mud, or the vehicle can get
stuck because of the vehicles weight.
11. Always pay close attention to your
surroundings, and check for streets, trail
intersections or other obstacles.
12. Always use signals in advance of turns.
13. Do not allow entrance or exit of the vehicle
while it is moving.
14. Keep the floorboard free of debris that can
obstruct the ability to use the brake pedal.
15. Position your hands on the steering wheel.
Always keep your hands and feet inside
passenger area of the vehicle. Never try to
stand while operating the vehicle.
16. Do not tow passengers, or attempt to jump the
vehicle.
3. Children safety instructions
Always watch children when they are around the
vehicle. Children like to imitate adults and this
could lead to an accident.
Do not leave children alone beside the vehicle.
Keep children from the operating area of the
vehicle.
Turn off the engine and remove the key when
children are in the operating area.
Never carry children in the cargo area. This is very
dangerous to children. Children under age of 5
should not be allowed in this vehicle.
Never allow children to touch or climb on the
vehicle, even if they are under adult supervision.
Always check for people or obstacles behind the
vehicle before shifting the vehicle into reverse.
Avoid a collision with an obstacle or person.
Park the vehicle on a firm, flat area. If parking on a
slope, you should use hand lever parking brake
then remove the key.

SAFE OPERATION 1-3
4. Driving on a slope
Be cautious when riding on a slope, as this is the
main reason for loss of control, and overturn,
leading to severe injury or even death.
1. Drive in a straight line on a slope at a
low-speed.
2. Reduce weight when riding on a slope or
rough terrain.
3. Avoid the sudden application of the brakes
when you go uphill or downhill. Be more
careful when vehicle turns on a slope.
4. If you start to lose momentum or need to park
when climbing, use the hand lever brake to
come to a stop. Release the brake and begin
to coast down the hill.
5. If do not believe you can operate the UTV
safely in reverse do not attempt to ascend the
slope any further.
6. Riding in mud, a ditch, and on slopes will
increase the risk of an overturn. Be more
cautious when operating in 4WD, vehicle
traction will increase and it is easy to misjudge
for vehicle’s ability to climb a grade.
7. Drive gradually and slowly when climbing.
Avoid suddenly changes of vehicle speed or
direction.
5. Driving in harsh conditions
1. Vehicle can be operated during the day or
under good light conditions.
2. Under all conditions, both operator and
passengers should wear helmet and
protective equipment.
3. The Driver should slow down according to
road conditions, terrain, visibility conditions.
4. Be cautious when driving over a ditch, stone
roads or hidden obstacles.
Avoid operating in any unknown depth of water.
（water depth should not exceed axle height）.
Driving at high speed
1. Check the condition of the front and rear
wheels.
2. Pay attention to the difference of braking
performances between two and four-wheel
drive. Slow down when turning. Turning at
high speeds, may result in overturn or even
death.
3. Turn on your headlights at high speeds.
4. Drive only when the vehicle speed can be
controlled.
5. Do not use DIFF.LOCK when driving at high
speeds. This may cause loss of control of the
vehicle.
6. When driving at high speeds, sudden turning
of the steering wheel will reduce vehicle
stability. Never sharply turn the steering wheel
at high speeds.
7. Instructions for carrier
1) Never carry a passenger in the cargo area.
2) Evenly distribute the cargo to maintain proper
stability. Avoid overloading the carrier. Cargo
should be securely attached.
3) Reduce loaded weight when driving on poor
road conditions or on steep inclines.
4) Only the driver should be in the seat when
operating the hydraulic dump mechanism (if
applicable). Once lowered, lock the cargo bed
in place before operating the vehicle. Don’t put
your hands or your body under the cargo bed
when the carrier is lifted (if applicable). Avoid
driving before securing and locking the cargo
bed.

SAFE OPERATION 1-4
8. Parking

the braking brake to the top position to park
the vehicle.
2. Avoid stopping the vehicle on a slope. If
stopping on a slope make sure the vehicle is
stationary before exiting.
①Parking brake lever.
②Pull to “PARK”
9. Transportation
1. Avoid dragging the vehicle behind another
vehicle. Use a trailer or truck to transport the
vehicle.
2. When loading or unloading, pay attention to
your surroundings and others in the area.
9. Maintenance
Stop the vehicle and park it on level ground. Pull
the parking brake and remove all cargo. Place the
shift lever in the “N” position, stop the engine and
remove the key.
1. When working next to the engine, exhaust,or
radiator, work only after it has cooled down.
2. Wait for the engine to stop running and cool
down before checking the coolant level.
Otherwise, you could be burned by hot fluid or
steam.
3. No smoking when adding electrolyte or
refueling. The fuel tank and battery should be
kept away from sparks. The battery produces
hydrogen and oxygen during charging and this
could accelerate the risk of explosion.
4. Read and follow the instructions before
replacing the battery.
5. During maintenance, first aid kits and fire
extinguishers should be placed at your
fingertips.
6. During maintenance, you should disconnect
the battery cables.
