Driving Safely

Hauling Cargo

• Never exceed the weight capacities for the vehicle. Capacities are listed in the specifica-

tions section beginning on page 178.

• Secure all cargo before driving. Loose cargo may move or shift, which could cause loss of

control or a tipover. Use suitable tie-downs or rope to secure the cargo. Do not allow cargo

or tie straps to hang over the edges of the racks.

• Carry only small loads that fit on the racks. Tall loads raise the center of gravity of the

vehicle and may cause loss of control or a tipover.

• Never allow a person to ride on the racks.
• Never tow or pull an object behind the ATV. A wagon, sled or other object towed behind

an ATV does not have brakes or steering. The object may overturn or collide with other

objects and cause serious injuries.
