Introduction
Readthisowner’smanual.

and should never be operated by anyone other than a trained adult. Failure to
follow the warnings and instructions in this manual can result in severe injury or
death.

Safety
For your protection, warning labels are placed on the vehicle. Read and follow
the instructions on the vehicle carefully. If any label becomes illegible or comes
off contact your authorized dealer to acquire a replacement.
Discretionary and Age Warning – Located on vehicle dash
Figure 2: Discretionary Warning Label
Danger:
Improper Use of Off-Highway Vehicles Can Cause Severe Injury or Death
Drive Responsibly
Avoid loss of control and rollovers:
Avoid abrupt maneuvers, sideways sliding, skidding, or fishtailing, and
never do donuts.
Slow down before entering a turn.
Avoid hard acceleration when turning, even from a stop. Plan for hills,
rough terrain, ruts, and other changes in traction and terrain.
Avoid paved surfaces.
Avoid side hilling (riding across slopes).
Require Proper Use of Your Vehicle
An UTV operator safety course, either through your dealer or online at
www.rohva.org is highly recommended.
Do your part to prevent injuries:
Do not allow careless or reckless driving.
Make sure operators are 16 or older with a valid driver’s license.
Do not let people drive or ride while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Do not allow operation on public roads (unless designated for off-highway
vehicle access) – collisions with cars and trucks can occur.
Do not exceed seating load capacity.

5
Seatbelt and Safety Warning – Located on vehicle firewall
Figure 3: Seatbelt and Safety Label
Warning:
Improper Use of Off-Highway Vehicles Can Cause Severe Injury or Death.
Be Prepared:
Fasten seat belts and side safety nets if so equipped.
Keep nets adjusted per owner’s manual.
Wear an approved helmet and protective gear.
Each rider must be able to sit with back against seat, feet flat on floor (and
foot rests), and have hands on steering wheel or handhold(s), where
equipped. Stay completely inside the vehicle.
Be Sure Riders Pay Attention and Plan Ahead
If you think or feel the vehicle may tip or roll, reduce your risk of injury:
Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel or handholds and brace yourself.
Do not put any part of your body outside of the vehicle for any reason.
ROHVA and ISO Certification Sticker – Located on the driver’s side below the
roll cage.

Figure 6: Cargo Bed Safety Label
Warning:
Improper use of cargo bed or cage/frame can result in severe injury or
death from loss of control, overturn or other accidents.
Never carry passengers in the cargo bed.
Maximum cargo bed capacity is 1200 lb. (gas & diesel), 700 lb. (electric),
and 1000 lb. (GC1K).
Cargo bed loading may affect handling and stability:
o Shift transmission to lower gear.
o Do not exceed 10 mph when cargo bed is loaded over 200 lb. or
when pulling a trailer.
o Inflate tire pressure to pressures stated on tire pressure label if cargo
load is over 200 lb.

7
o Secure cargo so that it will not shift, affecting handling or cause the
cargo to strike occupants.
o Keep cargo weight centered in the bed and as low as possible to
reduce the chance of rollover.
o Do not tow or pull objects from any other point on the vehicle other
than the trailer hitch or winch if installed.
o Reduce speed when making turns.
o Avoid steep inclines and tough terrain.
Read your owner’s manual before loading, towing, or pulling objects.

cargo bed.
