Additional Warnings (continued)
Engine/Motor Safety
●
Keep the engine/motor free of dirt and debris, especially in the
throttle linkage area.
●
Never start the engine/motor without checking to see that the throttle
control is in the idle position.
●
Never start the engine/motor unless you are properly seated with
your hands firmly on the controls.
●
Never tamper with, alter, or change the vehicle’s engine/motor
settings. The engine/motor governor is factory set and protects
the engine/motor from damage. Excessive engine/motor speed is
potentially dangerous to the operator, bystanders, and the engine/
motor itself.
●
All guards must be in place prior to starting the engine.
●
Operating the vehicle in conditions where water, mud, snow, dirt,
sand or other debris can get into the throttle cable conduit and/or the
throttle mechanism can cause the cable or throttle mechanism to
bind, which may lead to throttle sticking, loss of control, and
possible death, injury, and/or property damage.
Fasteners
●
Make sure that all screws, nuts, and bolts are properly tightened.
Never over-tighten hardware that is designed to move, such as front
and rear wheels. Restricting moving parts can cause a loss of
control and possible injury or death.
●
Always replace torque-type locknuts with new locknuts of the same
type after removing the old locknuts.
