SAFETY INFORMATION
EBU06611
AN ATV IS NOT A TOY AND CAN BE HAZARD-OUS TO OPERATE.
An ATV handles differently
from other vehicles including motorcycles and
cars. A collision or rollover can occur quickly, even
during routine maneuvers such as turning and
riding on hills or over obstacles, if you fail to take
proper precautions.
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH can result if you do
not follow these instructions:


Read this manual and all labels carefully and
follow the operating procedures described.


Never operate an ATV without proper instruc-
tion.


Always follow the age recommendation:
– A child under 16 years old should never oper-
ate an ATV with engine size greater than 90cc.


Never allow a child under age 16 to operate an
ATV without adult supervision, and never allow
continued use of an ATV by a child if he or she
does not have the abilities to operate it safely.

WARNING
_

Always turn off the engine when refueling.


Do not refuel right after the engine has
been running and is still very hot.


Do not spill gasoline on the engine or ex-
haust pipe/muffler when refueling. Never
refuel while smoking, or while in the vicin-
ity of sparks, open flames, or other sourc-
es of ignition such as the pilot lights of
water heaters and clothes dryers. Gaso-
line can catch fire and you could be
burned.


When transporting the machine in anoth-
er vehicle, be sure it is kept upright and
that the fuel cock is in the “OFF” position.
Otherwise, fuel may leak out of the carbu-
retor or fuel tank.


Gasoline is poisonous. If you should
swallow some gasoline or inhale a lot of
gasoline vapor, or get some gasoline in
your eyes, see your doctor immediately. If
gasoline spills on your skin, wash with
soap and water. If gasoline spills on your
clothing, change your clothes.
