SAFETY

Safe Riding Gear

Eye Protection

Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection.
Whenever riding this POLARIS vehicle, always wear shatterproof
goggles or use a shatterproof helmet face shield. POLARIS
recommends wearing approved Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
bearing markings such as VESC 8, V-8, Z87.1, or CE. Make sure
protective eye wear is kept clean.

Gloves

Wear gloves for comfort and for protection from sun, cold weather and
other elements.

Boots

Wear sturdy over-the-ankle boots for support and protection. Never ride
a POLARIS vehicle with bare feet or sandals.

Clothing

Wear long sleeves and long pants to protect arms and legs.

Rider Comfort

Under certain operating conditions, heat generated by the engine and
exhaust system can elevate temperatures in the rider cab area. The
condition occurs most frequently when a vehicle is being operated in
high ambient temperatures at low speeds and/or high load conditions for
an extended period of time. The use of certain windshield, roof and/or
cab systems may contribute to this condition by restricting airflow. Any
discomfort due to heat buildup in this area can be minimized by wearing
proper riding apparel and by varying speeds to increase airflow.
