climbing a hill. If you stall or roll backwards, follow the driving technique pro-
cedures as described in
RIDING TECHNIQUES .
– Always check for obstacles before operating in a new area. Never attempt to
operate over large obstacles, such as large rocks or fallen trees. Always fol-
low proper procedures when operating over obstacles as described in
RID-
ING TECHNIQUES
.
– Always be careful when skidding or sliding. Learn to safely control skidding or
sliding by practicing at low speeds and on level smooth terrain. On extremely
slippery surfaces, such as ice, go slowly and be very cautious in order to re-
duce the chance of skidding out of control. If you are operating a 2-UP model
and have a passenger on-board, never attempt skidding or sliding; overturn
or passenger ejection may occur.
– Never operate this vehicle through deep or fast flowing water. Water should
never exceed footrests. Remember that wet brakes may have reduced stop-
ping ability. Test your brakes after leaving water, mud or snow. If necessary,
apply them several times to let friction dry out the pads.
– Always keep in mind that braking distance is readily affected by but not limited
to; weather and terrain conditions, braking system and tire conditions, vehicle
speed and attitude, and vehicle load including towing. Remember to adjust
your driving accordingly.
– Always be sure there are no obstacles or people behind the vehicle when you
operate in reverse. When it is safe to proceed in reverse, go slowly. Take into
account that on a 2-UP model the passenger can obstruct your view.
– BRP recommends sitting on your ATV when operating in reverse. Avoid
standing up. Your weight could shift forward against throttle lever, causing an
unexpected acceleration and may lead to a loss of control.
– Never exceed the stated load limits for this vehicle including operator, pas-
senger (2-UP models), all other loads and added accessories. Cargo should
be properly distributed and securely attached. Reduce speed and follow in-
structions in this guide for carrying cargo or pulling a trailer. Allow greater dis-
tance for braking.
– Always inspect and confirm the safe operating condition of your vehicle prior
to ride. Refer to
PRE-RIDE INSPECTION . Always follow the maintenance
schedules as described in this Operator's Guide. Refer to MAINTENANCE .
– Never operate the vehicle if the controls do not function normally.
– Always maintain proper tire pressure. When replacing tires, use only the rec-
ommended tire size and type. For tire information, refer to
Specifications in
this guide.
– Riding your vehicle too fast for your skills or the conditions may result in in-
jury. Apply only enough throttle to proceed safely. Statistics show that mis-
haps and injury usually result from high speed turns. Always remember that
this vehicle is heavy! Its pure weight alone may entrap you should it fall result-
ing in injury.
– This vehicle is not designed for jumping, nor can it fully absorb the high im-
pact energy generated during manoeuvres such as jumping which, can be
passed on to you, the operator. Performing wheelies can cause the vehicle to
flip over onto you. Both practices have a high risk for you and your passenger
(2-UP models) and should be avoided at all times.
– The tires of this vehicle are not suited for paved road use.
– Never modify this vehicle through improper installation or use of accessories.
Only use BRP's approved accessories.
