Equipment Modifications
We are concerned for the safety of our customers and for the general
public. Therefore, we design accessories for your vehicle that take into
consideration safe vehicle handling and stability. Never operate with
accessories not approved by Polaris for use on this vehicle. Non-
approved accessories may seriously affect vehicle stability and could
cause the vehicle to overturn.
Do not install on a Polaris vehicle any equipment that may increase the
speed or power of the vehicle, or make any other modifications to the
vehicle for these purposes. Any modifications to the original equipment
of the vehicle create a substantial safety hazard and increase the risk of
bodily injury.
The warranty on your Polaris vehicle is terminated if any equipment has
been added to the vehicle, or if any modifications have been made to the
vehicle, that increase its speed or power.
NOTE:
The addition of certain accessories, including (but not limited to) mow-
ers, blades, tires, sprayers, or large racks, may change the handling
characteristics of the vehicle. Use only Polaris-approved accessories,
and familiarize yourself with their function and effect on the vehicle.
WARNING
Modifications to your vehicle may negatively impact vehicle stability and
result in serious injury or death. Failure of critical machine components may
result from operation with any modifications, especially those that increase
speed or power. This vehicle may become less stable at speeds higher than
those for which it is designed. Loss of control may occur at higher speeds.
Your Polaris vehicle is designed to provide safe operation when used as
directed.
• Do not make any modifications to this Polaris vehicle.
• Never operate with accessories not approved by Polaris for use on this
vehicle.
• The operator must check all safety components before each ride.
• Make sure your vehicle is in excellent operating condition at all times.
