INTRODUCTION
Failure to heed the warnings and safety precautions contained in this manual
can result in severe injury or death. A POLARIS ATV is not a toy and can be
hazardous to operate. This vehicle handles differently than other vehicles, such
as motorcycles and cars. A collision or rollover can occur quickly, even during
routine maneuvers like turning, or driving on hills or over obstacles, if you fail to
take proper precautions.
• Read this owner’s manual. Understand all safety warnings, precautions and
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).
• This vehicle is an ADULT VEHICLE ONLY. Operation is prohibited for anyone
under 16 years of age.
• Never permit a guest to operate the ATV unless the guest has read this
manual and all product labels and has completed a certified safety training
course (www.atvsafety.org).

Safety Training
ATV safety training is a top priority for POLARIS. POLARIS strongly
encourages you and any family members who will be riding the ATV to
take a training course.
If you purchased a new POLARIS ATV in the United States, your dealer
provided information about the authorized ATV RiderCoursesm that is
available to you and your eligible family members. This training is
included in the purchase price of your ATV. You were also provided
with printed materials that explain safe operating procedures. You
should review this information on a regular basis.
If you purchased a used POLARIS ATV in the United States, you can
enroll in the ATV RiderCoursesm for a fee. Call ATV Enrollment
Express at [phone] or visit www.atvsafety.org.
If you purchased a POLARIS ATV outside the United States, please
contact your dealer or local law enforcement agencies for information
about safety training.
A POLARIS ATV is an off-road vehicle. Familiarize yourself with all
laws and regulations concerning the operation of this vehicle in your
area.
We strongly advise you to strictly follow the recommended maintenance
program outlined in your owner's manual. This preventive maintenance
program is designed to ensure that all critical components on your
vehicle are thoroughly inspected at specific intervals.

Eye Protection
Do not depend on eyeglasses or sunglasses for eye protection.
Whenever riding a 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.
Gloves
Off-road style gloves with knuckle pads are the best for comfort and
protection.
Boots
The best footwear is a pair of sturdy over-the-calf boots with low heels.
Clothing
Always wear long sleeves and long pants to protect arms and legs.
Riding pants with kneepads and a jersey with shoulder pads provide the
best protection.
Equipment Modifications
We strongly recommend that consumers do not install on a POLARIS
ATV any equipment that may increase the speed or power of the vehicle,
or make any other modifications to the vehicle for these purposes.
The warranty on your POLARIS ATV 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.
The addition of certain accessories, including (but not limited to)
mowers, 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.
