Safe Operating Tips for UTVs

UTVs are a remarkable tool for on-farm use, but it’s important to operate them safely. Our team at J5 Tractors prioritizes safety for all of our customers, so we’ve put together a quick list of UTV safety tips. Visit us at one of our Texas locations to browse our selection when you’re ready to ride!

Understand Your Vehicle

One of the best ways to stay safe when you operate a UTV is to be familiar with your vehicle. You should understand its limitations and functions before you get behind the wheel. You can get to know your UTV by practicing and looking over the owner’s manual.

Abide by Regulations

Another way to stay safe is to follow regulations. Even though you’ll be operating your UTV on private property, there are rules and regulations for UTV operation for a reason. If you’re able to operate your UTV by general laws and rules, you’ll have much safer rides.

Keep Up With Maintenance

Finally, and possibly the most important, is keeping up with maintenance. A safe UTV is one that has been properly cared for! Staying up to date with oil changes, tire care, and even regular cleanings will make your vehicle much safer to operate.

Staying safe every time you use your UTV doesn’t have to be difficult, but it does have to happen. Find us in Normangee, Conroe, Buna, and Navasota, TX, to browse our inventory and speak with a member of our team.
