Working with your Vehicle
Your vehicle can help you perform a number of different LIGHT tasks ranging
from snow removal to pulling wood or carrying cargo. A variety of accessories
are available from your authorized Can-Am dealer. However, always respect the
load and capacities of the vehicle. Overloading of the vehicle can overstress the
components and cause failure. To prevent possible injury, it is equally important
to follow the instructions and warnings that accompany the accessory. Avoid any
physical exertion through lifting or pulling of heavy loads or man powering the
vehicle. (Continue to read
RECREATIONAL RIDING
below).
Recreational Riding
This vehicle is designed specifically to perform in mud riding, the ground clearance
being increased for such riding conditions. The ground clearance as well as the
type of tires may substantially decrease the handling, traction and stability of the
vehicle in some trail riding conditions. Reduce your speed in such conditions.
Respect the rights and limitations of others. Stay away from areas designated
for other types of off road use. This includes snowmobile trails, equestrian trails,
cross country ski trails, mountain bike trails, etc. Never assume there are no other
users on the trail. Always stay to the complete right of the trail and do not zig zag
to one side of the trail then the other. Be prepared to stop or pull off to the side if
another trail user appears in front of you.
Join a local ATV club. It will provide you with a map and advice or inform you where
you can ride. If a club does not exist in your area, help to start one. Group riding and
club activities provide a pleasurable, social experience.
Always keep a safe distance from other riders. Your judgment of speed, ter-
rain conditions, weather, mechanical condition of your vehicle and the “trust in
judgment” you have in others around you will help you make a better choice of
appropriate safe distance. This vehicle, like any other motorized vehicle, cannot
stop “on a dime”.
Before you ride, tell someone where you are planning to travel and your expected
time of return.
