How To Keep The Child Safe
Keeping your child safe should be one of the main priorities. This is why you need to establish certain safety rules with your kid first, in order to ensure that the adventures are accidents-free. Do not worry as these guidelines are not something that is difficult to follow by each party. If you explain them well, there shouldn’t be difficulties for the rules to be understood thoroughly. All of the companies that we have mentioned have designed the models with your child’s safety as a priority but you also have to make sure that you read and understand the instructions below.
-
-
It may be difficult to believe that the bigger and thrilling the adventure is, the safer your child will be. Well, it’s true. These vehicles are designed to be used on surfaces such as wet grass, sands and off-road. They are definitely not suitable for straight paved roads because there’s a risk that the ride will flip over and hurt your kid. This is because they are more difficult to control because the wheels can slip and the grip on the tires do not fit with such surface. In addition to this, the other cars can pose dangers to your child. Thus, if you keep on off-road trails and back garden, you will ensure that there are minimal hazards.
-
Purchase age suitable ATV
If your child wants one that can go at high speeds and do all sorts of things, but if they are not the age appropriate for that model, we recommend that you do not buy them the item. This is because not all of them come with parental-control so you will not have an influence on how high the speed can go. In addition to this, the reason a small child cannot control properly a model that is more advanced because they will simply not know how to. As well as, if your child out-grows the model they already have, it’s best that you purchase one that is more age appropriate. The reason why is that it’s difficult to maneuver the pedal if they have longer legs than recommended. Also, the footrest at the bottom of the vehicle will be uncomfortable for the child. Thus, increasing the chances of bad accidents to happen.
-
Make sure you only allow one child at a time
These vehicles were not designed for more than one child to be on it at a time. Adding another pupil on the ride will distribute the weight unequally. This will make it much more difficult for the vehicle to be maneuvered. The more difficult it is to do so, the higher the chances of the product to tip over. In addition to this, you can risk for one person to fall off the vehicle whilst it’s moving because there’s simply no space for both children to fit. Even though you believe that their added weight does not exceed the weight limit, we strongly recommended that you do not allow for more than one child to ride at a time.
-
Just because the product appears like a toy, it’s still a functioning vehicle that can reach impressive speeds. This is why you need to ensure that your child is protected properly. We suggest that you purchase a protective helmet and clothing that is resistant to frequent falls. It’s important to note that at the beginning, will inevitably take some nasty falls if they travel at high speeds. Thus, make sure that you provide them with the safety they need.
How To Properly Store An ATV
If you have spent some considerable money on a model or you have upgraded it to the point where it can cost hundreds of dollars, it’s important that you put in some effort to maintain it properly in order to make sure that you will have it for many years to come. It’s important to remember that you need to pay close attention to it, even when you are not using the product. This will ensure longevity and money well spent.

If you have a model that runs on gas, it’s important to drain all of the fuel from the tank. You do not have to do this if you only want to store it away for few days, you have to do this method when it won’t be used for few months. Please remember that not only the tank needs to be emptied. You need to clean out the fuel lines or any place that contains fuel. In addition to this, when they are empty, please add fuel stabilizer in order to preserve the efficiency of the engines. This is because empty tanks form rust and residue fast and the stabilizer will prevent the formation of such things. No rust means efficient motor.
-
If you have a model that is electric, you need to make sure that you take out the batteries when you store it away. The reason why is that if you leave it out in the rain, you will damage its functionality and it will lose power gradually. We strongly do not recommend that you leave it in a damp environment because you won’t be able to restore it to how it was. If you want to be extra careful, it’s best if you recharge the batteries every month. In case you want to clean them, just mix baking soda with water and you will notice that the area becomes spotless in no time.
-
Pay attention to the tires
The models come already well secured from the manufacturer. There’s no need for you to add any jacks or blocks if you believe that the ATV is already stable enough. If you want to ensure that the product is stored away properly, check to see if those are screwed in as they should. In case they are loose, use a standard screwdriver to turn it to how it was before. Do not worry if those come screw because it can happen due to the surfaces it was ridden on. Off-road trails can sometimes be bumpy so it’s inevitable that some come unscrew.
-
You may already have a cover that it’s the suitable size for the ATV so you believe that you shouldn’t purchase a new one. However, you are very long especially if the cover is made out of plastic. This is because a plastic cover retains moisture inside which will have a negative effect on the ATV’s parts such as the engine. Putting stabilizer inside of the fuel tank isn’t enough to protect it from rust or molds. You need to also cover it with a cover that is made out of strong and resistant materials.
