Carrying Loads
Your ATV has been designed t o carry a certain amount of load.
CARGO WEIGHT should be evenly distributed (1/3 on the front and
2/3 on the rear) and mounted as low as possible. When operating over
rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo to maintain stable
driving conditions. Never exceed the weights specified in your
Owner’s Manual Supplement.
Maximum trailer weight - 850 lbs.(386 kg); maximum vertical hitch
weight - 30 l bs.(14 kg). Select models may tow up to 1225 (556 kg)
on level ground only with a maximum vertical hitch weight of 35 lbs.
(16 kg). Refer to your Owner’s Manual Supplement to determine your
machine’s capabilities. Know your machine before your ride.
Maximum grade while trailer t owing - 15°. Do not tow any trailer on a
grade steeper than 15°.
If your machine is equipped with a front rack, take care when loading.
Improper loading of the front rack can obstruct the headlight beam,
reducing night visibility. Do not obstruct the headlight beam with
car go.
Use of low forward gear is recommended in heavy pulling situations to
extend belt life.
