• Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and
avoiding quick, sharp turns which can cause skids.
• Correct a skid by turning the handlebars in the direction of
the skid and shifting your body weight forward.
• Driving with 4WD engaged can assist in controlling the
vehicle in slippery areas�
CAUTION
Severe damage to drive train may occur if the 4WD is engaged
while the wheels are spinning�
Always engage 4WD when the wheels have traction or are at rest�
WARNING

of control, an accident, and serious injury or death. Never apply the brakes during a skid. Do not operate on
excessively slippery surfaces. Always reduce speed and use additional caution.
