OPERATION
Hauling Cargo
Your POLARIS vehicle has been designed to carry or tow specific
capacities. Reduce speed and allow a greater distance for braking when
carrying cargo.
Loads should be centered and carried as low as possible in the box. For
stability on rough or hilly terrain, reduce both speed and cargo. Exercise
caution if the cargo load extends over the side of the box.
Always read and understand the load distribution warnings listed on
warning labels and in this manual. Never exceed the maximum capaci-
ties specified for your vehicle. See page 122.
Belt Life
To extend belt life, use low gear when hauling or towing heavy cargo.
Towing Loads
Towing improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of control or
brake instability.
Always follow these precautions when towing:
1. Never load more than 150 lbs. (68.1 kg) tongue weight on the tow-
ing bracket.
2. Do not operate the vehicle faster than 10 mph (16 km/h) when tow-
ing. Towing a trailer increases braking distance.
3. Do not tow more than the recommended weight for the vehicle.
4. Attach a trailer to the trailer hitch bracket only. Do not attach a
trailer to any other location, which could result in loss of control of
the vehicle.
5. The total load (operator, passengers, accessories, cargo and weight
on hitch) must not exceed the maximum weight capacity of the
vehicle.
