RIDING
Safe Riding Tips
Backing Up
1. Avoid backing up on steep inclines.
2. Always 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.
6. Never activate override button while throttle is open. Loss of
control may result.
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. Only
open the throttle enough to maintain a desired speed.
Opening the throttle more than required may cause excessive fuel
to build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping and/or engine
damage.
CAUTION
