RACK LOADING
(Front and Rear) -
Utility
The front rack and rear rack are designed
to carry specified load capacities.
Always refer to the ATV Load Capacity
Ratings Chart for proper capacities.
TRAILERING AND
TOWING (Utility)
Trailer Tongue Weight is the down-
ward force exerted on the hitch by the
trailer coupler when the trailer is fully
loaded and the coupler is at its normal
towing height. Refer to the Load
Capacity Ratings Chart for tongue
weight information.
Always maintain a slow speed when
trailering and towing and avoid sudden
accelerations, quick maneuvers, and
sudden stops. Braking distance will be
affected when towing a trailer. When
towing a trailer, always maintain slow
speed and allow more stopping dis-
tance than when not towing a trailer.
TRANSPORTING ATV
When transporting the ATV, Arctic Cat
recommends that the ATV be in its nor-
mal operating position (on all four
wheels) and the following procedure be
used.
1. Engage the brake lever lock.
2. Secure the ATV with load rated
hold-down straps.
NOTE: Suitable hold-down straps
are available from your Arctic Cat
ATV dealer. Ordinary rope is not rec-
ommended because it can stretch
under load.
! WARNING
Make sure the loads on the front
and rear racks will not interfere with
the ATV controls or obstruct the
view of the operator. Also, make
sure the loads are evenly distrib-
uted, properly secured, and will not
shift while operating the ATV.
! WARNING
Never use the racks as a towing or
trailering point.
! WARNING
Riding an ATV without extra caution
when towing a trailer will be hazard-
ous. Trailer towing can affect the
handling and braking of the ATV.
Never tow a trailer without a rigid
tongue and never exceed 10 mph.
Avoid sudden accelerations and
stopping of the ATV. Do not make
quick maneuvers. Avoid uneven
surfaces and do not tow on hills.
Never carry passengers in a trailer
unless the trailer is designed for
such use and has a rigid tow bar.
Allow more stopping distance than
when not towing a trailer.
CAUTION
When transporting the ATV, make
sure the brake lever lock is engaged
and the ATV is properly secured.
