(See “ Loading ” on page 6-11.) Car- rying a passenger and cargo can affect vehi- cle handling. WA R N I N G POTENTIAL HAZARD Carrying a passenger in the cargo bed. [...]

7-3 The driver and passenger must always wear a seat belt and an approved motorcycle helmet. Also wear eye protection and protective cloth- ing, including over-the-ankle boots, gloves, a long-sleeved shirt or jacket, and long pants. Keep hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times. WA R N I N G POTENTIAL HAZARD Overloading this vehicle or carryi[...]

7-4 WA R N I N G POTENTIAL HAZARD Operating this vehicle without wearing an approved motorcycle helmet, eye protection, and protective clothing. WHAT CAN HAPPEN Operating without an approved motor- cycle helmet in- creases your chances of a severe head injury or death in the event of an ac- cident. Operating without eye protection can re- sult in a[...]

7-5 LEARNING TO OPERATE YOUR VEHICLE You should become familiar with the perfor- mance characteristics of the vehicle in a large, flat area that is free of obstacles and other ve- hicles. Practice control of the accelerator ped- al, brakes, steering, and drive select lever. Drive first at slow speed and become comfort- able at that speed before gra[...]

7-6 CAUTION: _ Do not shift from low to high or vice versa without coming to a complete stop and waiting for the engine to return to normal idle speed. Damage to the engine or drive train may occur. _ TURNING YOUR VEHICLE The vehicle is easier to steer in two-wheel drive (2WD) than four-wheel drive (4WD). Steering takes the most effort in 4WD with [...]

7-7 BRAKING Braking ability is affected by the type of ter- rain. In most cases, gradually application of the brakes is more effective than abrupt brak- ing, particularly on loose surfaces like gravel. Always allow for greater braking distance on rough, loose, or slippery surfaces. GOING UPHILL Do not attempt to climb hills until you have mastered [...]

7-8 Before climbing the hill, first be sure you are operating in low range 4WD or, if necessary, with 4WD Diff. Lock. To climb a hill, you need traction, momentum, and steady throttle. Travel fast enough to keep your momentum going, but not so fast that you cannot react to changes in the terrain as you climb. Slow down when you reach the crest of t[...]

7-9 If you start to lose traction or momentum when climbing, and you decide you will be un- able to continue, use the brakes to come to a stop. Do not attempt to turn the vehicle around. With your foot on the brake, look be- hind you and plan your descent. Shift the drive select lever in reverse so you can use the engine brake if necessary to slow [...]

7-10 Before starting down hill, make sure the vehi- cle is in low-range 4WD. On most slopes, this will let you use engine braking to help you go downhill slowly. Go as slowly as possible. If you are starting to go too fast, apply the brakes gently. Avoid sudden application of the brakes, which could cause the vehicle to start sliding. If you are sl[...]

7-11 CROSSING THROUGH SHALLOW WATER If you must cross shallow, slow moving water up to the depth of the vehicle ’ s floorboards, choose your path carefully to avoid sharp drop-offs, large rocks, or slippery surfaces that could cause the vehicle to overturn. Nev- er operate through water deeper than 33 cm (13 in) or fast flowing water. Wet brakes [...]

7-12 CAUTION: _ After riding your vehicle in water, be sure to drain the trapped water by removing the check hose at the bottom of the air filter case, the V-belt cooling duct check hose, the drive select lever box check hose and the V-belt case drain plug. Wash the vehi- cle in fresh water if it has been operated in salt water or muddy conditions.[...]

7-14 RIDING IN BRUSH O R WOODED AREAS When operating in areas with brush or trees, watch carefully on both sides and above the vehicle for obstacles such as branches that the vehicle might hit, causing an accident, or for brush that might enter the vehicle as you pass and strike the driver or passenger. Nev- er hold onto the enclosure so your hand [...]

7-15 ENCOUNTERING OBSTAC LES ON THE TRAIL If you cannot go around an obstacle such as a fallen tree trunk or a ditch, stop the vehicle where it is safe to do so.
