Riding Apparel
Be prepared, be warm and be
comfortable when riding. Be
aware of the weather
forecast, especially the
windchill, and dress
accordingly. See the chart
on page 19.
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.
Helmet
Wearing a helmet can prevent a severe head injury. Whenever riding a
Polaris vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds established
safety standards.
Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) label.
Approved helmets in Europe, Asia and
Oceania bear the ECE 22.05 label. The
ECE mark consists of a circle surrounding
the letter E, followed by the distinguishing
number of the country which has granted
approval. The approval number and serial
number will also be displayed on the label.
Eye Protection
Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection.
Whenever riding a Polaris vehicle, always wear shatterproof goggles or
use a shatterproof helmet face shield. Polaris recommends wearing
approved Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) bearing markings such
as VESC 8, V-8, Z87.1, or CE. Make sure protective eye wear is kept
clean.
