2. USE GENUINE SPARE PARTS

In order to maintain the ATV best performance, each part’s quality, material, and machined
precision must conform with the design requirements. “SYM Genuine Spare Parts” were
made from the same high quality materials used for the original ATV. No parts would be
sold to the market until they could meet the designed specifications through sophisticated
engineering and stringent quality control. Therefore, it is necessary to purchase “SYM
Genuine Spare Parts” from “SYM Authorized Dealers or Franchised Dealers” when
replacing spare parts. If you buy cheap, or fake substitute parts from the market, no
guarantee can be provided either for the quality or durability. Also, it may result in
unexpected troubles and lower the motorcycle’s performance.
Always use SYM Genuine Spare Parts to keep your ATV pure blood and to ensure its long
service life.

3. CONTROL LOCATION
12
yKnow the terrain where you ride. Ride
cautiously in unfamiliar areas. Stay alert
for holes, rocks, or roots in the terrain,
and other hidden hazards which may
cause the machine to upset.
yBe familiar the terrain where you ride.
You may not have enough time to react
on the unfamiliar terrain such as hidden
rocks, bumps, or holes. Be sure to go
slowly any carefully when operating on
unfamiliar terrain.

3. CONTROL LOCATION
13
yIf your ATV has stalled or stopped and
you believe you can continue up the hill,
restart carefully to make sure you do not
lift the front wheels which could cause
you to lose control. If you are unable to
continue up the hill, dismount the ATV
on the uphill side. Physically turn the
ATV around and then descend the hill.
yAvoid wheelies and jumping. You may
lose control of the machine or overturn.

4. SAFE RIDING PRECAUTIONS
14
To make a turn on level ground:
ySteer the handlebar and lean your body
toward the inside of the turn. Leaning
helps balance the vehicle, and it feels
more comfortable. Leaning into a turn is
an important technique to master in
riding an ATV.
yWhen approaching a curve, slow down
and begin to turn the handlebar. Next,
put your weight on the footboard to the
outside of the turn(opposite the turning
direction) and lean your upper body
forward into the turn. Use the throttle to
maintain an even speed during the turn.
To make a sharp turn at low speed:
yIt helps to shift your body slightly
forward on the seat, and lean inside, as
you steer the handlebar. Shifting weight
forward allows the rear wheels to turn
easier, and it also improves front-wheel
steering.

4. SAFE RIDING PRECAUTIONS
15
yTravel when easy slippery road surface,
moves the body to front, is helpful to the
vehicles advance.
yAlthough the from and rear brakes have
separate controls, your ATV’s four-
wheel drive interconnects all four
wheels. So operating any brake con will
cause braking at both the front and rear
wheels.
yAs a general rule, the front braking
system provides about 70 percent of
total stopping power.
yFor full braking effectiveness, use both
the pedal and lever simultaneously.
Using braking systems will stop your
ATV faster with greater stability.
yTest your brakes after leaving the water.
Do not continue to ride your ATV without
verifying that you have regained proper
braking ability.

4. SAFE RIDING PRECAUTIONS
16
Crossing Hills or Slopes
yTo maintain balance and stability when
riding across a slope, you need to shift
weight toward the uphill side of the
vehicle. To do this, move your body off
the center of the seat and lean toward
the uphill side.
yAvoid hills with extremely slippery or
loose surfaces. Shift your weight to the
uphill side of the ATV.
yAvoid crossing hills that are excessively
steep, slippery or rough.
Making Turns on Slopes
yCompared to riding on level ground, you
may need to shift more weight ant lean
more when making turns on slopes.
yWhen ATV travel when rugged not good
path, the body slightly stands, is helpful
to the travel when the bodily stability.
yThe ATV may slide during riding on
loose or slippery surfaces. To reduce
the tendency for the front wheels to slide
in loose or slippery conditions,
positioning your weight over the front
wheels will help.
yIf the rear wheels of ATV start to slide
sideways, steer in the direction of the
slide carefully. Applying the brakes or
accelerating is not recommended until
you have corrected the slide.

4. SAFE RIDING PRECAUTIONS
17
yCrossing a sloping surface requires a
properly position on your weight to
maintain proper balance. Be sure that
you have learned the basic riding skills
on flat ground before crossing a sloping
surface. Avoid slopes with slippery
surfaces or rough terrain that may upset
your balance.
yWhen traveling across a slope, lean
your body in the uphill direction. It may
be necessary to front wheels slightly
uphill. When riding on slopes, do not
make sharp turns.
yIf ATV does start to tip over, gradually
steer in the downhill direction if there are
no obstacles. Once recover proper
balance, gradually steer again in the
direction you to go.
yWhen climbing hills, you must shift
weight toward the front wheels to help
keep them on the ground. To do this,
shift your body slightly forward on the
seat and lean forward. For greater
weight shift, move your body father
forward and lean forward.
CAUTION:
yAlways check the terrain carefully before you startup any hill.
yNever climb hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
yTo climb a hill, take a running start in an appropriate gear and speed for the conditions.
Maintain a steady speed as you ascend the hill.
yNever open the throttle suddenly or make sudden gear changes. The ATV could flip
over backward.
yNever go over the top of any hill at high speed. An obstacle, a sharp drop, or another
vehicle or person could be on the other side of the hill.

4. SAFE RIDING PRECAUTIONS
18
yIt’s usually advisable to descend hills
with the ATV pointed straight downhill.
Avoid angles that would cause the
vehicle to lean sharply to one side.
yOn downhills, shift your weight back.
yAs you approach a downhill, stop and
survey the terrain below. Never ride
past the limit of your visibility. Never go
down a hill at high speed.
yUse mainly the rear brake to control
speed. Avoid using either the front
brake or rear brake hard or abruptly
when riding down hills.
yRemember, braking effectiveness is
reduced on any hill with a loose
surface.
