take proper precautions.

operating procedures before operating a POLARIS ATV. Keep this manual
with the ATV.
• Never operate an ATV without proper instruction. Take a certified ATV safety
training course (www.atvsafety.org).

manual and all product labels and has completed a certified safety training
course (www.atvsafety.org).
