SPECIAL SAFETY MESSAGES
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH can result if you do not follow these in-
structions:
– Always make a pre-ride inspection BEFORE you start the engine.
– Throttle mechanism should be checked for free movement and
return to idle position before starting engine.
– Always attach tether cord eyelet to clothing before starting the
engine.
– Never operate the engine without belt guard and brake disk
guard securely installed or, with hood or side panels opened
or removed. Never run the engine without drive belt installed.
Running an unloaded engine such as without drive belt or with
track raised, can be dangerous.
– Always engage parking brake before starting the engine.
– Everyone is a beginner the first time he sits behind the controls
of a snowmobile regardless of previous experience in driving any
other type of vehicle. The safe use of your snowmobile depends
on many conditions such as visibility, speed, weather, environ-
ment, traffic, vehicle condition and the condition of the operator.
– Basic training is required for the safe operation of any snow-
mobile. Study your operator's guide paying particular attention
to cautions and warnings. Join your local snowmobile club: its
social activities and trail systems are planned for both fun and
safety. Obtain basic instructions from your snowmobile dealer,
friend, fellow club member or enroll in your state or provincial
safety training program.
– Any new operator must read and understand all safety labels on
the snowmobile, the Operator's Guide and watch the
SAFETY
VIDEO located at www.brplynx.com/en/owners/safety/safety-in-
formation.html before operating the snowmobile. Only allow
a new operator to operate the snowmobile in a restricted flat
area, at least until he is completely familiar with its operation. If
snowmobile operator's training course is offered in your area,
have him enroll.
– The performance of some snowmobiles may significantly exceed
that of other snowmobiles you have operated. Therefore, use by
novice or inexperienced operators is not recommended.
– Snowmobiles are used in many areas and in many snow condi-
tions. Not all models perform the same in similar conditions. Al-
ways consult your snowmobile dealer when selecting the snow-
mobile model for your particular needs and uses.
