Safety Warnings

Carrying a Passenger in the

Cargo Box

A passenger riding in the cargo box could fall from the vehicle unexpectedly or may contact moving components, both of which can result in severe injury or death. Never allow a passenger to ride in the cargo box.

Operating on Pavement

Operating an ATV on paved surfaces (including sidewalks, paths, parking lots and driveways) may adversely affect the handling of the ATV and could result in loss of control and accident or overturn.

Avoid operating the ATV on pavement. ATV tires are designed for off-road use. If it's unavoidable, travel slowly and avoid sudden turns or stops.

Operating on Public Roads

Operating this ATV on public streets, roads or highways could result in a collision with another vehicle.

Never operate the ATV on any public street, road or highway, including dirt and gravel roads. In many states it's unlawful to operate ATVs on public streets, roads and highways.

Operating at Excessive

Speeds

Operating the ATV at excessive speeds increases the operator's risk of losing control.

Never operate at excessive speeds. Travel at speeds appropriate for your skills, your passenger's skills, and operating conditions.
