●Do not mount an accessory where it could inter-
fere with your ability to control the ATV. Exam-
ples include (but are not limited to) a heavy or
bulky object attached to the handlebars which
could make steering difficult, an accessory that
limits your ability to move around on the seat, or
one that limits your view.●Use extra caution when riding an ATV with ac-
cessories. The ATV may handle differently than
it does without accessories.EBU21081Loading
WARNING
EWB00820Never exceed the stated load capacity for this
ATV. Overloading this ATV or carrying or tow-
ing cargo improperly could cause changes in
ATV handling which could lead to an accident.
Cargo should be properly distributed and se-
curely attached. Reduce speed when carrying
cargo or pulling a trailer. Allow greater dis-
tance for braking.As originally equipped, this ATV is not designed to
tow a trailer. If you choose to add accessories so
that you can tow a trailer, you must use commonsense and good judgment as the stability and han-
dling of an ATV can be changed. When adding ac-
cessories, keep the following points in mind:
●Never exceed the weight limits shown. An over-
loaded ATV can be unstable.●If you are carrying cargo and towing a trailer, in-
clude the tongue weight in the maximum ATV
load limit.●Load cargo on the carriers as close to the center
of the ATV as possible. Put cargo at the rear of
the front carrier, at the front of the rear carrier,
and center it.●Tie down cargo securely to the carriers. Make
sure cargo in the trailer cannot move around. A
shifting load can cause an accident.●Make sure the load does not interfere with con-
trols or your ability to see where you are going. MAXIMUM LOADING LIMIT
ATV loading limit (total weight of rider, cargo,
accessories, and tongue):105.0 kg (231 lb)
Fro nt c arr i er : 5.0 kg (11 lb)
Rear carrier: 10.0 kg (22 lb)

opening, even when the throttle lever is pushed to
the maximum. Turning in the adjusting screw limits
the maximum engine power available and de-
creases the maximum speed of the ATV. Turning
in the adjusting screw decreases top speed, and
turning it out increases top speed. (See page 4-4.)
Loading and accessories
Take extra precautions when driving with a load or
trailer. Follow these instructions and always use
common sense and good judgment when carrying
cargo or towing a trailer.
WARNING
EWB01462Improper loading or towing can increase the
risk of loss of control, an overturn, or other ac-
cident. To reduce the risk of an accident:●Do not exceed the maximum loading limits
for the vehicle (see “MAXIMUM LOADING
LIMIT” in this section or vehicle labeling).●Keep weight on racks centered side to side,
and as low as possible. Be sure cargo is se-
cured – a loose load could change handling
unexpectedly.●Make sure the load does not interfere with
your control or ability to see where you are
going.●Tie down cargo in the trailer securely. Make
sure cargo in the trailer cannot move around.
A shifting load can cause an accident.●Reduce speed and allow more room to stop.
A heavier vehicle takes longer to stop.●Avoid hills and rough terrain. Choose terrain
carefully. Use extreme caution when towing
or carrying a load on inclines.●Turn gradually and go slowly.

7Drive more slowly than you would without a load.
The more weight you carry, the slower you should
go. Although conditions vary, it is good practice to
drive slowly (shift into first gear or low drive if avail-
able on this model) whenever you are carrying
heavier loads or when towing a trailer.
During operation
Always keep your feet on the footboards during op-
eration; otherwise, they may contact the rear
wheels.
WARNING! Removing even one hand
or foot can reduce your ability to control the
ATV or could cause you to lose your balance
and fall off of the ATV. If you remove a foot
from a footboard, your foot or leg may come
into contact with the rear wheels, which could
injure you or cause an accident.

Avoid wheelies and jumping. WARNING! At-
tempting wheelies, jumps, and other stunts in-

wheelies or jumps. Don’t try to show off.[EWB01481]
