OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STEEP DESCENTS
CAUTION: It is not advisable to change direction
during steep descents. This can lead to a serious
malfunction of the vehicle’s steering system and
Track Systems.
CAUTION: During a steep descent, it is advisable to
keep the handlebars straight and to begin turning
when the vehicle is on flat ground, thus avoiding
subjecting the vehicle components and the System
to any high stress.
CAUTION: Reduce your speed at all times; Track
Systems installed on a vehicle do not have the
same absorption capacity as tires.
DESCENDING AND BEING STUCK IN
REVERSE
CAUTION: If the rear Track Systems get stuck in the
snow, avoid moving or towing the vehicle in reverse
to ease it from its position, as this could lead to a
malfunction of the Systems. If possible, move it in
the forward direction to free it from the snow.
CAUTION: It is advisable to remove the snow from
the top of the rear Track Systems and to compact it
behind the Systems, using your feet, to dislodge the
track. Shoveling remains the best alternative in this
situation.
CAUTION: Always operate in 4x4 mode, this
significantly reduces possibility of derailing in any
conditions.
WARNING
Allow for a greater braking distance and
periodically apply the brakes while driving to
prevent ice build-up on brake components.
WARNING
Adapt your driving style to surrounding conditions
(weather, traffic, etc.) and your driving abilities.
