INTRODUCTION

SAFETY
EQUIPMENT MODIFICATIONS

directed.

Modifying this vehicle in any way can change the top speed, stability and

this vehicle. Review all vehicle changes with your child prior to operating.
The POLARIS limited warranty on your POLARIS vehicle will be terminated if
any non-POLARIS-approved equipment and/or modifications have been added
to the vehicle that increase speed or power.

SAFETY

HELMET
Wearing a helmet can prevent a severe head injury. Whenever riding this
POLARIS vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds established
safety standards. Always buckle and pull straps tight to ensure the helmet is
secured.
Parents and supervising adults should verify that the provided helmets fit
properly. If a helmet doesn't fit, a new one should be obtained in the proper size.
Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) label.
Approved helmets in Europe, Asia and Oceania bear the ECE 22.05 label. The
ECE mark consists of a circle surrounding the letter E, followed by the
distinguishing number of the country which has granted approval. The approval
number and serial number will also be displayed on the label.
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.
CLOTHING
Wear long sleeves and long pants to protect arms and legs.
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.
RIDER COMFORT
Under certain operating conditions, heat generated by the engine and exhaust
system can elevate temperatures in the driver and passenger 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.
