Towing Loads
Always attach a towed load to the hitch point. Remove the hitch from
the ATV when not towing a trailer. If towing a load, reduce rear rack
cargo weight by the amount of tongue weight.
The combination of rear rack cargo weight and tongue weight must
not exceed the rear rack capacity.
The total load (operator, passenger, accessories, cargo and weight on
hitch) must not exceed the maximum weight capacity of the vehicle.
NOTICE: Using an improper hitch or exceeding
the maximum tongue weight capacity
can result in serious damage to the
vehicle and will void your ATV
warranty. Never install a hitch longer
than 4" (10 cm). Never install
automotive accessories on your
Polaris ATV. Always install Polaris-
approved (or equivalent) accessories
designed for ATV use.
Maximum Towing Capacities
Do not exceed maximum towing capacities. Avoid towing on inclines.
