OPERATION

Driving Safely

Driving in Reverse

Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:
1. Always avoid backing downhill.
2. Back slowly.
3. When in reverse, apply the brakes lightly for stopping.
4. Avoid turning at sharp angles in reverse.
5. Never open the throttle suddenly while backing.

NOTE: Most Polaris ATVs are equipped with a reverse speed limiter.

The override button should be used with caution as rearward vehicle

speed is greatly increased. Do not operate at wide open throttle. Open

the throttle just enough to maintain a desired speed.

WARNING

Failure to use caution when operating in reverse can result in

serious injury or death. Before shifting into reverse, always check

for obstacles or people behind the vehicle. When it’s safe to

proceed, back slowly.
Do not use the override switch unless additional power is required

for vehicle movement. Use with caution.
Avoid backing on inclines, and avoid turning at sharp angles.

Excessive throttle operation while in the speed limit mode may

cause fuel to build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping

and/or engine damage.
