Operation Warning
WARNING
• To avoid serious injury or death,
read and understand all warnings
and the Owner's Manual before
operation. If manual is missing,
contact a POLARIS dealer for a
replacement.
• This vehicle is capable of high
speeds. Buried objects or uneven
terrain can cause loss of control.
Reduce speed and use extreme
caution when operating in
unfamiliar terrain.
• Excessive speed, especially at night or with limited visibility, can result
in insufficient time for you to react to terrain changes, to avoid
unexpected obstacles, or to stop safely.
• Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating this vehicle.
• In an emergency, push down the Auxiliary Shut-Off Switch, located on
the top of the throttle control assembly, to stop the engine. Then pull the
brake lever to stop.
• Always wear an approved helmet, eye protection, and adequate clothing
while operating this vehicle.
• This vehicle is designed for adult use only. Check local laws for age
requirements.
• When operating with a passenger (on approved models only) reduce
speed and allow extra space for steering and stopping. A passenger
reduces your ability to control the vehicle.
• When operating on hard-packed snow, ice, or when crossing roads,
steering and braking ability are greatly reduced. Reduce speed and
allow extra space to turn or stop.
• To maintain vehicle control on ice or hard-packed surfaces, you should
have a proper balance of ski carbides to track studs. See Owner's
Manual for proper use of traction products.
• Repeated stops from high speed may cause fading or sudden loss of
braking ability.
• Parking brake may relax when used for long periods. Do not leave brake
engaged for more than five minutes.
• Before starting engine, check throttle, brake, and steering for proper
operation. Make sure hood and side panels are latched. Be seated and
in position to control the vehicle.
Oil injection system: Use unmixed fuel only. Check oil level when
refueling.
