quality.
Accessories should be rigidly and securely
mounted. An accessory which can shift position
or come off while you are riding could affect your

bulky object attached to the handlebars which
could make steering difficult, an accessory that
limits your ability to move around on the seat, or

Cargo or a trailer can change the stability and han-
dling of an ATV.

when carrying cargo or towing a trailer. Keep the
following points in mind:Never exceed the weight limits shown. An over-

You can measure tongue weight with a bath-
room scale. Put the tongue of the loaded trailer

just the load in the trailer, if necessary, to reduce
the weight on the hitch. If you are carrying cargo
and towing a trailer, include the tongue weight in
the maximum ATV load limit.MAXIMUM LOADING LIMIT
