Failure to heed the warnings and safety precautions contained in this manual

be hazardous to operate. This vehicle handles differently than cars, trucks or

other off-road vehicles. A collision or rollover can occur quickly, even during

routine maneuvers like turning, or driving on hills or over obstacles, if you fail to

take proper precautions.

operating procedures before operating the vehicle. Keep this manual with the

vehicle.

• Visit the Recreational Off-Highway Vehicle Association web site (rohva.org)

and take the free on-line training course.

New Operator Driving Procedures.

under 16 years of age or anyone without a valid driver’s license.

els of this machinery is measured per prEN 15997.

The vehicles were in like-new condition. The environment was con-

trolled as indicated by the test procedure(s).

The uncertainty of vibration exposure measurement is dependent on

many factors, including:

• Ability of the worker to reproduce typical work during measurements

• Environmental factors such as ambient noise or temperature

SAFETY

Equipment Modifications

Your POLARIS vehicle is designed to provide safe operation when used

as directed. Modifications to your vehicle may negatively impact vehi-

cle stability. Failure of critical machine components may result from

operation with any modifications, especially those that increase speed or

power. This vehicle may become less stable at speeds higher than those

for which it is designed. Loss of control may occur at higher speeds.

Do not install on a POLARIS vehicle any equipment that may increase

the speed or power of the vehicle, or make any other modifications to

the vehicle for these purposes. Any modifications to the original equip-

ment of the vehicle create a substantial safety hazard and increase the

risk of bodily injury.

The warranty on your POLARIS vehicle is terminated if any equipment

has been added to the vehicle, or if any modifications have been made to

the vehicle, that increase its speed or power.

The addition of certain accessories, including (but not limited to) mow-

ers, blades, tires, sprayers, or large racks, may change the handling char-

acteristics of the vehicle. Use only POLARIS-approved accessories, and

familiarize yourself with their function and effect on the vehicle.

SAFETY

POLARIS vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds estab-

lished safety standards.

Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S. Department of

Transportation (DOT) label.

Approved helmets in Europe, Asia and Oceania

bear the ECE 22.05 label. The ECE mark consists

of a circle surrounding the letter E, followed by the

distinguishing number of the country which has

granted approval. The approval number and serial

number will also be displayed on the label.
