OPERATION
Driving Safely
Driving in Reverse
Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:
1. Always avoid backing
downhill.
2. Back slowly.
3. When in reverse,
apply the brakes
lightly for stopping.
4. Avoid turning at sharp
angles in reverse.
5. Never open the throttle
suddenly while backing.
NOTE: Most Polaris ATVs are equipped with a reverse speed limiter.
The override button should be used with caution as rearward vehicle
speed is greatly increased. Do not operate at wide open throttle. Open
the throttle just enough to maintain a desired speed.
WARNING
Failure to use caution when operating in reverse can result in
serious injur y or death. Before shifting into reverse, always c heck
for obstacles or people behind the vehicle. When it’s safe to
proceed, back slowly.
Do not use the override switch unless additional power is required
for vehicle movement. Use with caution.
Avoid backing on inclines, and avoid turning at sharp angles.
Excessive throttle operation while in the speed limit m ode may
cause fuel to build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping
and/or engine damage.
