Safety Training

ATV safety training is a top priority for Polaris. Polaris strongly encourages you and any family members who will be riding the ATV to take a training course.

If you purchased a new Polaris ATV in the United States, your dealer provided instruction to you about the authorized ATV RiderCoursesm that is available to you and your eligible family members. This training is included in the purchase price of your ATV. You were also provided with printed materials that explain safe operating procedures. You should review this information on a regular basis.

If you purchased a used Polaris ATV in the United States, you can enroll in the ATV RiderCoursesm for a fee. Call ATV Enrollment Express at (800) 887-2887 or visit www.atvsafety.org.

If you purchased a Polaris ATV outside the United States, please contact your dealer or local law enforcement agencies for information about safety training.

A Polaris ATV is an off-road vehicle. Familiarize yourself with all laws and regulations concerning the operation of this vehicle in your area.

We strongly advise you to strictly follow the recommended maintenance program outlined in your owner's manual. This preventive maintenance program is designed to ensure that all critical components on your vehicle are thoroughly inspected at specific intervals.

Eye Protection

Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection. Whenever riding a Polaris vehicle, always wear shatterproof goggles or use a shatterproof helmet face shield. Polaris recommends wearing approved Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) bearing markings such as VESC 8, V-8, Z87.1, or CE. Make sure protective eye wear is kept clean.

Gloves

Off-road style gloves with knuckle pads are the best for comfort and protection.

• Balance your weight carefully.

Avoid sudden movements.

Maintain a slow and steady forward motion. Do not make sudden turns or stops, and do not make sudden throttle changes.

Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving. The friction will help dry out the pads.

Improper Cargo Loading

Overloading the ATV or carrying/towing cargo improperly may cause changes in handling, which could cause loss of control or an accident.

Never exceed the stated load capacity for this ATV.

• Cargo should be properly distributed and securely attached.
