SAFETY
Safety Warnings
Operating Through Deep Water
Operating the ATV through deep or fast-
flowing water could cause the tires to float,
causing loss of control or overturn.
Avoid operating the ATV through deep or
fast-flowing water. If it's unavoidable to
enter water that exceeds the
recommended maximum depth (see page
68):
• Travel slowly.
• 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.
• Reduce speed when carrying cargo or
pulling a trailer. Allow a greater distance
for braking.
• NEVER exceed 50 MPH (80 km/h) when rear cargo loads are above 75 lbs.
(34 kg) and/or front cargo loads are above 37 lbs. (17 kg).
• NEVER exceed 50 MPH (80 km/h) while carrying a passenger.
• NEVER exceed 10 MPH (16 km/h) when rear cargo loads are above 200 lbs.
(91 kg) and/or front cargo loads are above 100 lbs. (45 kg).

pulling a trailer. See pages 72-74.
