CARRYING LOADS

Your ATV has been designed to carry a certain amount of load. CARGO WEIGHT

should be evenly distributed (1/3 on the front and 2/3 on the rear) and mounted as

low as possible. When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and car-

go to maintain stable driving conditions. Never exceed the following weights.

Maximum trailer weight - 850 lbs.(386 kg); maximum vertical hitch weight - 30

lbs.(14 kg). Sportsman 500 may tow up to 1250 (568 kg) on level ground only.
Maximum grade while trailer towing - 15

. Do not tow any trailer on a grade steeper

than 15

If your machine is equipped with a front rack, take care when loading. Improper

loading of the front rack can obstruct the headlight beam, reducing night visibility.

Do not obstruct the headlight beam with cargo.
Use of low forward gear is recommended in heavy pulling situations to extend belt

life.
