SAFETY INFORMATION
AN ATV IS NOT A TOY AND CAN BE HAZARDOUS TO OPERATE. An ATV handles differently from
other vehicles including motorcycles and cars. An accident can occur quickly, even during routine
maneuvers such as turning and riding on hills or over obstacles, if you fail to take proper pre-
cautions.
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH can result if you do not follow these instructions:
Always avoid operating an ATV on any paved surfaces, including sidewalks, driveways, parking
lots and streets.
Never operate an ATV on any public street, road or highway, even a dirt or gravel one.
