OPERATION OF YOUR ATV
Hauling and Towing Cargo
Your vehicle is equipped with front and rear cargo racks, and a hitch receptacle for towing. Follow these
guidelines for hauling and towing of cargo:
WARNING
Overloading the vehicle, carrying or towing cargo improperly, can alter the vehicle handling and may cause
loss of control or braking instability.
• Always use low gear while towing to avoid clutch wear and belt issues.
• Reduce speed when hauling or towing loads.
• Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle.
• All loads must be secured before operation. Unsecured loads may shift and create unstable operating
conditions, which could result in loss of control of the vehicle.
• When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo to maintain stable driving
conditions.
• Use extreme caution when applying brakes with a loaded vehicle. Avoid terrain or situations that may
require backing downhill.
• Weight distribution on the front and rear racks should be as far forward and as low as possible.
Carrying a high load raises the center of gravity and creates an unstable operating condition. Reduce
load weight when the cargo center of gravity is high. When handling o-centered loads that cannot be
centered, secure the load and operate with extra caution.
