Wear eye protection when operating or riding the
vehicle to reduce the risk of a serious accident or
injury. Eye protection, such as a face shield or
goggles, may reduce the risk of foreign material
getting in your eyes and help prevent loss of vi-
sion.
Practice for new Rhino users
You should become familiar with the performance
characteristics of the vehicle in a large, flat area
that is free of obstacles and other vehicles. Prac-
tice controlling the accelerator pedal, brakes,
steering, and drive select lever. Drive at slow
speeds with gradual acceleration and turning.
Practice smooth throttle application. Practice slow-
ing down before turning. Practice maintaining a
steady throttle through the turn. Avoid higher
speeds until you are thoroughly familiar with the
operation of your vehicle. Remember, driving ag-
gressively or making abrupt maneuvers even on
flat, open areas can cause side rollovers.
