Always keep both hands, arms, feet, and legs
inside the vehicle at all times during operation.
Keep your feet on the floorboard. Never hold
onto the enclosure except when using the
handgrip inside the enclosure. Otherwise, your
hand could be injured if it is caught between the
enclosure and an obstacle outside the vehicle.


Always keep both hands on the steering wheel
when driving.


Never wrap your thumbs and fingers around
the steering wheel. This is particularly impor-
tant when driving in rough terrain. The front
wheels will move right and left as they respond
to the terrain, and this movement will be felt in
the steering wheel. A sudden jolt could wrench
the steering wheel around, and your thumbs or
fingers could be injured if they are in the way of
the steering wheel spokes.


Always go slowly and be extra careful when op-
erating on unfamiliar terrain. Always be alert to
changing terrain conditions when driving the
vehicle.
