VEHICLE TRANSPORTATION
Make sure that oil reservoir and fuel tank caps are p roperly installed.
Tilt bed trailers can easily be equipped with a winch mechanism to
afford maximum safety in loading. Simple as it m ay seem, never
drive your snowmobile onto a tilt bed trailer or any other kind of
trailer or vehicle. Many serious accidents have resu lted from driving
up and over a trailer. Anchor your vehicle securely, front an d rear,
even on short hauls. Be certain all equipment is securely fastened.
Cover your snowmobile when trailering to prevent road grime from
causing damage.
Be certain your trailer meets state or provincial requirements. En-
sure the hitch and safety chains are secure and the brake, turn
indicators and clearance lights all function.
WARNING
Do not tow the vehicle facing backwards. If the ve hicle is
towed facin g backwards, the wind may ca use damage to the
windshield or even loss of the windshield.
