SAFETY
Operator Safety
• Always follow proper procedures for turning as described in this
manual. Practice turning at slow speeds before attempting to turn at
faster speeds. Never turn at excessive speeds.
• Always have this vehicle checked by an authorized Polaris dealer if it
has been involved in an accident.
• Never operate this vehicle on hills too steep for the vehicle or for your
abilities. Practice on smaller hills before attempting larger hills.
• Always follow proper procedures for climbing hills as described in
this manual. Check the terrain carefully before attempting to climb a
hill. Never climb hills with excessively slippery or loose surfaces.
Never open the throttle suddenly or make sudden gear changes. Never
go over the top of a hill at high speed.
• Always follow the proper procedures outlined in this manual for trav-
eling downhill and for braking on hills. Check the terrain carefully
before descending a hill. Never travel downhill at high speed. Avoid
going downhill at an angle, which would cause the vehicle to lean
sharply to one side. Travel straight down the hill where possible.
• Always check for obstacles before operating in a new area. Never
attempt to operate over large obstacles such as rocks or fallen trees.
Always follow the proper procedures outlined in this manual when
operating over obstacles.
• Always be careful of skidding or sliding. On slippery surfaces such as
ice, travel slowly and exercise caution to reduce the chance of skid-
ding or sliding out of control.
• Never operate your vehicle in fast-flowing water or in water deeper
than that specified in this manual. Wet brakes may have reduced stop-
ping ability. Test your brakes after leaving water. If necessary, apply
them lightly several times to let friction dry out the pads.
• Always be sure there are no obstacles or people behind your vehicle
when operating in reverse. When it's safe to proceed in reverse, move
slowly. Avoid turning at sharp angles in reverse.
• Always use the proper size and type of tires specified in this manual.
Always maintain proper tire pressure as specified on page 5 and in the
specifications section beginning on page 100.
