ACCESSORY USE AND VEHICLE LOADING

Many types of accessories are available that may work with

your ATV, however, these accessories have not been tested

for use with this machine. Be cautious when choosing and

installing accessories to your vehicle. Your retailer may be

able to help you choose accessories and install them cor-

rectly.

WARNING:

Never modify the ATV with improper installation or use of

improper accessories. All parts and accessories added to

the ATV should be new original manufacturer’s parts or

their equivalent designed for use on this ATV. Improper

installation of accessories or modifications of the vehicle

may cause changes in handling, which could lead to an

accident causing serious personal injury.

The following guidelines should help you decide how to

equip your ATV and how to use it correctly when you use

accessories.

The combined weight of the rider, tools, and any acces-

sories or cargo plus the vertical weight on trailer hitch

must never exceed the vehicle’s load capacity of 364 lbs.

(165 kg).

Check accessory mounting brackets and other attachments

to make sure they provide a rigid non-movable mount.

Accessories added to the handlebar of the ATV should

be as light as possible. The extra weight could cause the

vehicle to be harder to steer.

Do not add accessories or cargo which interferes with

controls or other equipment.

Do not carry heavy or bulky cargo.

Distribute cargo weight evenly between the front and rear

of the vehicle as well as both sides of the vehicle. Locate

cargo weight as close to the center of the vehicle as pos-

sible.

Secure your load well. Shifting weight can affect your

ability to handle the vehicle safely.

Ride at slow speeds and avoid hills when carrying cargo.

Carrying loads would affect the stability and handling of

your ATV.

Allow enough stopping distance. Stopping distance in-

creases if you carry loads. Use engine braking as much

as possible.
