Rider Capacity
Some POLARIS snowmobiles are designed for a single rider only, while
some are designed for up to two riders. A safety label on the vehicle
indicates whether the vehicle is designed for a single rider or for two
riders.
Driving With a Passenger
1. Do not carry a passenger until
you have at least two hours of
driving experience with this
vehicle.
2. Allow a passenger to ride only
on models equipped with a
passenger seat.
3. Perform the suspension
adjustments required due to
extra rider weight.
4. Make sure any passenger is tall
enough to comfortably and
safely reach the hand holds and
running boards/footrests.
5. Make sure both driver and passenger are wearing appropriate riding
gear, including an approved helmet.
6. Perform the recommended pre-ride inspections. See page 76.
7. Lock the parking brake when loading a passenger. Always make
sure the brake is engaged to ensure the vehicle remains motionless
whenever a passenger mounts or dismounts. Unlock the parking
brake before operating.
8. Allow a passenger to ride only in the approved passenger seat.
9. Never carry more than one passenger.
10. Slow down! Control may be more difficult with a passenger on
board. Allow more time and distance for braking. Reduce speed
when turning.
11. Ride to the ability of your passenger, instead of to your own ability.
Avoid unexpected or aggressive maneuvers that could cause a
passenger to fall from the vehicle.
