Operation Warning
The operation warning decal is located on the console:
WARNING
• To avoid serious injury or death, read and understand all warnings
and the Owner's Manual before operation. If manual is missing, con-
tact a Polaris dealer for a replacement.
• This vehicle is capable of high speeds. Buried objects or uneven
terrain can cause loss of control. Reduce speed and use extreme
caution when operating in unfamiliar terrain.
• Excessive speed, especially at night or with limited visibility, can
result in insufficient time for you to react to terrain changes, to
avoid unexpected obstacles, or to stop safely.
• Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating this vehi-
cle.
• In an emergency, push down the Auxiliary Shut-Off Switch, located
on the top of the throttle control assembly, to stop the engine. Then
pull the brake lever to stop.
• Always wear an approved helmet, eye protection, and adequate
clothing while operating this vehicle.
• This vehicle is designed for adult use only. Check local laws for age
requirements.
• When operating with a passenger (on approved models only)
reduce speed and allow extra space for steering and stopping. A
passenger reduces your ability to control the vehicle.
• When operating on hard-packed snow, ice, or when crossing roads,
steering and braking ability are greatly reduced. Reduce speed and
allow extra space to turn or stop.
• To maintain vehicle control on ice or hard-packed surfaces, you
should have a proper balance of ski carbides to track studs. See
Owner's Manual for proper use of traction products.
• Repeated stops from high speed may cause fading or sudden loss
of braking ability.
• Parking brake may relax when used for long periods. Do not leave
brake engaged for more than five minutes.
• Before starting engine, check throttle, brake, and steering for proper
operation. Make sure hood is latched. Be seated and in position to
control the vehicle.
Oil injection system: Use unmixed fuel only. Check oil level when
refueling.
