Riding Position
Operating a snowmobile requires skill and balance for proper control.
Rider positions may vary with experience and the features available on
some snowmobiles, but under many conditions, the proper position is to
be seated with both feet on the running boards and both hands on the
handlebar grips for proper throttle, brake and steering control.
NOTE: Use of a backrest may hinder your weight shifting ability. This
could affect your ability to control this rider-active vehicle in cer-
tain extreme driving situations.
Riding Apparel
Be prepared, be warm and be com-
fortable when riding. Be aware of
the weather forecast, especially the
windchill, and dress accordingly.
See the chart on page 21.
WARNING
Improper riding position may reduce control and could result in serious injury
or death. Always ride in a position that allows for control of your vehicle.
WARNING
Avoid wearing loose clothing or
long scarves, which can become
entangled in moving parts and
cause serious injury. Always
wear an approved helmet and
eye protection.
