Sit properly on the snowmobile
Operating a snowmobile requires skill and balance for proper control. An improper position can reduce the child's ability to control the snowmobile. The riding position may vary as the operator becomes more skilled, but under most conditions the proper position is to be seated with both feet on the running boards, in a comfortable position for proper throttle, brake and steering control.
WARNING
This snowmobile is propelled by a revolving track,
which must be partially exposed for proper operation. Serious injuries
may be caused by operator carelessness, resulting in hands, feet,
hair or clothing becoming entangled in the track. Teach the child
to respect this machine and all moving parts. Teach the child that
being properly seated is the safest way to stay clear of the track.
WARNING
Never hold the snowmobile up or stand behind it while warming up the track. A loose track or flying debris could cause serious personal injury or death.
