Rack Loading (Front
and Rear)
The front rack and rear rack are designed
to carry specified load capacities. Always
refer to the ATV Load Capacity Ratings
chart for proper capacities.
Trailering and Towing
Trailer Tongue Weight is the downward
force exerted on the hitch by the trailer
coupler when the trailer is fully loaded
and the coupler is at its normal towing
height. Refer to the Load Capacity Rat-
ings chart for tongue weight information.
Always maintain a slow speed when
trailering and towing and avoid sudden
accelerations, quick maneuvers, and sud-
den stops. Braking distance will be
affected when towing a trailer. When
towing a trailer, always maintain slow
speed and allow more stopping distance
than when not towing a trailer.
Transporting ATV
When transporting the ATV, the ATV must
be in its normal operating position (on all
four wheels) and the following procedure
must be used.
1. Engage the brake lever lock and
place the transmission in gear.
2. Secure the ATV with load rated
hold-down straps.
NOTE: Suitable hold-down straps
are available from your Arctic Cat
ATV dealer. Ordinary rope is not
recommended because it can
stretch under load.
! WARNING
Make sure the seat is secure before
mounting the ATV. Severe personal
injury may result if the seat is not
properly secured.
! WARNING
Make sure the loads on the front and
rear racks will not interfere with the
ATV controls or obstruct the view of
the operator. Also, make sure the
loads are evenly distributed, prop-
erly secured, and will not shift while
operating the ATV.
! WARNING
Never use the racks as a towing or
trailering point.
! WARNING
Riding an ATV without extra caution
when towing a trailer will be hazard-
ous. Trailer towing can affect the
handling and braking of the ATV.
Never tow a trailer without a rigid
tongue and never exceed 10 mph.
Avoid sudden accelerations and
stopping of the ATV. Do not make
quick maneuvers. Avoid uneven sur-
faces and do not tow on hills.
! WARNING
Never tow people in or on any device
except when towing a disabled vehi-
cle with operable brakes and steer-
ing or on a trailer designed for
passengers that has a rigid tow bar.
CAUTION
Failure to engage the brake lever
lock and place the transmission in
gear could result in the ATV rolling
off the trailer in the event of tie-
down strap failure.
