Shift the transmission into gear . See page 52. 5. Check your surroun dings and determine your path of travel.
69 Operation Making T urns Y our A TV is equipped with a solid rear axle, which drives both rear wheels equally at all times. The wheel on the outside of the turn travels a greater distance th an the inside wheel when turn- ing, and the inside tire slips traction slightly .
70 Operation Driving on Slippery Surfaces Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet trails or loose gravel, or during freezing weather , follow these precautions: 1. Do not operate on excessively rough, slip- pery or loose terrain. 2. Slow down when entering slippery areas.
71 Operation Driving on Slippery Surfaces 4. Never apply the brakes during a skid. Correct a skid by turning the handlebars in the direction of the skid and shifting yo ur body weight fo rward.
72 Operation Driving Uphill Braking and handling are greatly af fected when operating in hilly terrain. Improper procedure could cause loss of control or overturn. When- ever traveling uphill, fo llow these precautions: 1. Drive straight uphill. 2. A void steep hills (25 ° maximum).
73 Operation Driving Uphill 5. Keep both feet on the footpegs . 6. Shift body weight uphill. 7. Proceed at a steady rate of speed and thro ttle opening. Opening the throttle suddenly could cause the A TV to flip over backwards. 8. Never back down a h ill.
74 Operation Driving on a Sidehi ll (Sidehilling) Driving on a sidehill is not recommended. Im proper procedur e could cause loss of c ontrol or overturn. A void crossing the side of any hill unless absolutely necessary . If crossing a sidehill is unavoidable , follow these precautions: 1.
75 Operation T urning Around on a Hill If the vehicle stalls while climbing a hill, never back it down the hill! Us e the K-turn to turn around: 1. Keep your body weight uphill. 2. Pull in the clutch lever and apply the front and rear brakes. 3. When completely stopped, sh ut of f the engi ne.
76 Operation T urning Around on a Hill 7. W ith the front bra kes applied, pull in the clutch lever . Use the brakes to slowly allow the vehicle to roll around to your right until it's pointing across the hill or slightly down- ward. 8. W ith the front bra kes still applied, release the clutch lever and lo ck the parking brake.
77 Operation T urning Around on a Hill 9. Pull in the clutch lever , shift in to neutral and restart the engine. 10. Release the parking brake and slowly release the clutch lever , allowing the A TV to pro- ceed slowly . Stay in first gear , using the brakes for additional speed control if necessary , until more level gr ound is reached.
78 Operation Driving Downhill When driving downhill, follow these precautions: 1. A void steep hills (25 ° maximum). 2. Shift body weight uphill. Transfer your weight to the rear of the vehicle. 3. Drive straight downhill. 4. Slow down. Excessive speed when traveling downhill can cause loss of control.
79 Operation Parking on a Hill or Incline A void parking on an in cline if possible. If it's unavoidable, follow these precau- tions: 1. S top the engine. 2. Place the transmission in first gear . 3. Lock the parking brake. 4. Always block the rear wheels on the downhill side.
80 Operation Driving Through W ater Polaris does not recommend operating in water deeper than the height of the footpegs. Follow these precautions when operating through wat er: 1. Determine water depth and current before entering water . 2. Choose a crossing where the water level is lowest and where both banks have grad ual inclines.
81 Operation Driving Through W ater NOTICE: Serious engine damage can result if the vehicl e is not thoroughly i nspected after operating in water deeper than the footpeg level. As s oon a s possible, perform th e inspections and maintenance services outli ned in the period ic maintenance chart be ginning on page 87.
82 Operation Driving in Reverse Follow these precautions w hen operat- ing in reverse: 1. Always check for obstacles or peo- ple behind the vehicle. 2. Always avoid backing downhill. 3. Back slowly . 4. Apply the bra kes lightly for stop- ping. 5. A void turning at sharp ang les.
83 Operation Driving in Reverse 7. Do not operate at full throttle. Use just enough throttle to main tain a desired speed. 8. Always look left, right and behin d the A TV before backing . NOTICE: Excessive throttle o peration while in the sp eed limi t mode may cause fuel to build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping and/or eng ine damage.
84 Operation Driving Over Obst acles Follow these precautions whe n operating over obstacles: 1. Always check for obstacles before oper- ating in a new area. 2. Look ahead and learn to read the terrain. Be constantly alert for hazards such as logs, rocks and low hanging branches.
85 Emission Control Systems Noise Emission Control System Do not modify the engine, intake or ex haust components, as doing so may affect compliance with U.S.A. EP A noise control requirements (40 CFR 205) and local noise level requ ire- ments. Operation on Public Lands in the U.
