Loading
Cargo or a trailer can change the stability and
handling of an ATV. You must use common
sense and good judgment when carrying car-
go or towing a trailer. Keep the following
points in mind:
● Never exceed the weight limits shown. An
overloaded ATV can be unstable.
● Do not exceed the maximum tongue
weight. You can measure tongue weight
with a bathroom scale. Put the tongue of
the loaded trailer on the scale with the
tongue at hitch height. Adjust the load in the
trailer, if necessary, to reduce the weight on
hitch.
If you are carrying cargo and towing a trail-
er, include the tongue weight in the maxi-
mum vehicle load limit.
● Load cargo on the carrier as close to the
center of the vehicle as possible. Put cargo
at the front of the rear carrier. Center the
load from side to side.
● Tie down cargo securely to the carriers.
Make sure cargo in the trailer cannot move
around. A shifting load can cause an acci-
dent.
● Make sure the load does not interfere with
controls or your ability to see where you are
going.
