OPERATION
Failure to operate a track-equipped vehicle properly can result in a
collision, loss of control, accident or rollover, which may result in serious
injury or death. Every user must read and understand this user manual.
Always check with local authorities in your intended area of operation to
understand laws and restrictions pertaining to the operation of this track-
equipped vehicle.
Serious injuries may result if hands, feet or clothing become entangled
in a moving track. Stay clear of all moving tracks.
Pre-Use Inspection
WARNING!
Operating the vehicle with a damaged track increases the
possibility of track failure, which could cause loss of control resulting in
serious injury or death. Always inspect the track for damage before
using the vehicle.
Survival Preparation/Remote Terrain Operation
When traveling off trails in remote terrain, always carry survival
equipment appropriate to the conditions you may encounter. Such
equipment may include, but is not limited to: a shovel, a first aid kit, extra
clothing, a sleeping bag, a flashlight, food and water, a signaling mirror, a
means of building a fire and a two-way radio or cellular telephone. If
possible, carry essential spare parts for emergency repairs.
1. Inspect the track and all
track system components
for wear or damage.
Never operate with a
damaged track.
2. Inspect wheels and
moving parts for
excessive mud, snow, ice
and debris. Make sure the
system can operate freely
and that components are
not bound by these
elements.
3. Clear away any snow, mud or debris that may hinder or block
proper operation of the vehicle’s cooling and steering systems, air
intakes and exhaust outlets.
4. After the initial installation, and after every future reinstallation of the
tracks, always adjust track angle of attack, system alignment and
track tension after the first use of the vehicle. See pages 18-25.
