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
22.
WARNING! Avoid wearing loose
clothing or long scarves, which can
become entangled in moving parts
and cause serious injury.
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. When-
ever 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.
