Driving Safely

Making Turns

Your ATV is equipped with a solid rear axle, which drives both

rear wheels equally at all times. This means that the wheel on

the outside of the turn must travel a greater distance than the

inside wheel when turning and the inside tire must slip

traction slightly. To turn, steer in the direction of the

turn, leaning your upper body to the inside of the turn

while supporting your weight on the outer footrest.

This technique alters the balance of traction between

the rear wheels, allowing the turn to be made smoothly.
NOTE: Practice making turns at slow speeds.

WARNING

Turning at sharp angles or at excessive speeds can result in vehicle overturn and

lead to serious injury. Avoid turning at sharp angles. Never turn at high speeds.
