Driving 1-Up -
Some POLARIS snowmobiles are designed for a single
rider only. A decal on the
console
of these models indicates single rider
operation.
Driving 2-Up -
Some POLARIS snowmobiles are designed for up to
two riders. A decal on the
hood
of these models indicates that the vehi-
cle is designed for one operator and one passenger only.
WARNING!
Control becomes more difficult with two people on board. More
space is required to make turns, and longer distances are needed for stopping.
Make sure the passenger remains seated behind the driver, facing forward, with
both feet placed firmly on the running boards. Slow down
and avoid “jumping”
your snowmobile.
Snowmobiles designed for two riders should never be operated with
more than two people on board. When traveling with a passenger, it’s
the driver’s responsibility to operate the snowmobile safely.
