WHAT TO DO ...
8If your ATV doesn’t turn when you want it to:
Bring the ATV to a stop and practice the turn-
ing maneuvers again. Be sure you are putting
your weight on the footboard to the outside of
the turn. Position your weight over the front
wheels for better control. (See pages 7-41–7-
45.)
8If your ATV begins to tip while turning:
Lean more into the turn to regain balance. If
necessary, gradually let off the throttle and/or
steer to the outside of the turn. (See pages
7-41–7-45.)

8If your ATV is traversing a sloping surface:
Be sure to ride with your weight positioned
towards the uphill side of the ATV to maintain
proper balance. If the ATV starts to tip, steer
down the hill (if there are no obstacles in your
way) to regain balance. If you discover that
the ATV is going to tip over, dismount on the
uphill side. (See pages 7-61–7-63.)
8If your ATV encounters shallow water:
Ride slowly and carefully through slow mov-
ing water, watching for obstacles. Be sure to
let water drain from the ATV and CHECK
YOUR BRAKES FOR PROPER OPERATION
when you come out of the water. Do not con-
tinue to ride your ATV until you have regained
adequate braking ability. (See pages 7-65–
7-67.)

Drive chain slack check
NOTE:
Move the ATV back and forth and find the tight-
est position of the drive chain. Check and/or
adjust the chain slack while it is in this tightest
position.
To check the drive chain slack, all tires must be
touching the ground and there should be no
weight on it. Check the drive chain slack at the
position shown in the illustration Normal slack is
approximately 30mm. If the slack exceeds 30
mm, adjust it to specification.
