SAFETY

Operator Safety

Cargo Overload

Too much weight on the rear of the snowmobile may reduce your ability

to steer. Do not exceed carrier and rack weight limits, and do not allow a

passenger to sit on the seat back or the cargo carrier.

Disabled Operators

Safe operation of this rider-active vehicle requires good judgement and

physical skills.

WARNING! Operators with cognitive or physical disabilities have an increased

risk of loss of control, which could result in serious injury or death. Do not allow

disabled persons to operate this vehicle.

Rider Capacity

Driving 1-Up - Some Polaris snowmobiles are designed for a single

rider only. A label on the console of these models indicates single rider

operation.
Driving 2-Up - Some Polaris snowmobiles are designed for up to two

riders. A label on the hood of these models indicates that the vehicle is

designed for one operator and one passenger only. See page 23 for label

location.
Snowmobiles designed for two riders should never be operated with

more than two people on board. When traveling with a passenger, it’s

the driver’s responsibility to operate the snowmobile safely.
Slow down! Control becomes more difficult with two people on board.

More space is required to make turns, and longer distances are necessary

for stopping.
