8Never operate an ATV in fast flowing water or
in water deeper than that recommended in
this manual. Remember that wet brakes may
have reduced stopping ability. Test your
brakes after leaving water. If necessary, apply
them several times to let friction dry out the
linings.
8Always use the size and type tires specified in
this manual.
8Always maintain proper tire pressure as
described in this manual.
8Never modify an ATV through improper instal-
lation or use of accessories.
8Never exceed the stated load capacity for an
ATV. Cargo should be properly distributed
and securely attached. Reduce speed and fol-
low instructions in this manual for carrying
cargo or pulling a trailer. Allow greater dis-
tance for braking.

good judgement. Keep the following points in
mind:
8Never exceed the weight limits shown. An
overloaded ATV can be unstable.

8Load cargo on the carriers as close to the
center of the vehicle as possible. Put cargo at
the rear of the front carrier and at the front of
the rear carrier. Center the load from side to
side.
8Tie down cargo securely to the carriers. Make
sure cargo in the trailer cannot move around.
A shifting load can cause an accident.
8Make sure the load does not interfere with
controls or your ability to see where you are
going.
8Ride more slowly than you would without a
load. The more weight you carry, the slower
you should go.
Allow more braking distance. A heavier vehi-
cle takes longer to stop.
8Avoid making sharp turns unless at very slow
speeds.
8Avoid hills and rough terrain. Choose terrain
carefully. Added weight affects the stability
and handling of the ATV.
