SPECIAL SAFETY MESSAGES
– Avoid road traveling. If you must do so, and it is permitted, re-
duce speed. The snowmobile is not designed to operate or turn
on paving. When crossing a road, make a full stop, then look
carefully in both directions before crossing at a 90° angle. Be
wary of parked vehicles.
– Snowmobiling at night can be a delightful experience but be-
cause of reduced visibility, be extra cautious. Avoid unfamiliar
terrain and be sure your lights are working. Always carry a flash-
light and spare light bulbs.
– Never remove any original equipment from your snowmobile.
Each vehicle has many built in safety features. Such features
include various guards and consoles, plus reflective materials
and safety labels.
– Nature is wonderful but don't let it distract your attention from
driving. If you want to truly appreciate winter's scenery, stop
your snowmobile on the side of the trail so that you don't become
a hazard to others.
– Fences represent a very serious threat for both you and your
snowmobile. Give a wide berth to telephone poles or posts.
– Hidden wires unseen from a distance can cause serious acci-
dents.
– Always wear an approved safety helmet, eye protection and a
face shield. This also applies to your passenger.
– Be aware of inherent risks associated with riding off trails, such as
avalanche and other natural or man made hazards or obstacles.
– Tailgating another snowmobile should be avoided. If the snow-
mobile in front of you slows for any reason, its operator and
passenger could be harmed through your neglect. Maintain a
safe stopping distance between you and the snowmobile in front
of you. Depending on the terrain condition, stopping may require
a little more space than you think. Play it safe. Be prepared to
use evasive driving.
– Venturing out alone with your snowmobile could also be haz-
ardous. You could run out of fuel, have an accident, or damage
your snowmobile. Remember, your snowmobile is capable of
traveling further in half an hour than you may be able to walk
in a day. Use the “buddy system”. Always ride with a friend
or member of your snowmobile club. Even then, tell someone
where you are going and the approximate time you plan to return.
