WARNING
Load may affect handling and stability.
Do not exceed the maximum load ratings for thecargo bed, or vehicle.
When loaded with cargo: Reduce speed and allow more room to stop.
Turn gradually and slowly.
Avoid hills and rough terrain. Secure cargo so that it will not shift - a loose loadcould change handling unexpectedly or be thrown
forward and strike occupants.
Keep weight in the cargo bed centered side to side and as low as possible. Top-heavy loads increase the risk of a
rollover.
Read Owner’s Manual before loading cargo bed. Improper use of cargo bed or
cage/frame can result
in severe injury or
death from loss of
control, overturn or
other accidents.
Maximum Load in Cargo Bed: 300 lbs (136 kg)
Maximum Vehicle Load: 723 lbs (328 kg) Never carry
passengers
in cargo bed.

• Do not drive or ride as passenger after using drugs or alcohol.
Prepare your vehicle
Perform the pre-operation checks each time you use the vehicle to make sure it is in safe oper-
ating condition. Failure to inspect or maintain th e vehicle properly increases the possibility of an
accident or equipment damage. See page 6-1 for a list of pre-operation checks.
Prepare your load
Carrying heavy or over-sized loads can affect hand ling, stability, and cause the risk of overturns
or other accidents.
 Read “Loading” on page 7-12 before loading the cargo bed.
 Do not overload the vehicle or cargo bed.
 Refer to the labels on the vehicle for specific loading limits and recommended tire air pressure.
 Keep heavier objects and the load in general cent ered side to side, and as low and as far for-
ward in the cargo bed as possible.
 Secure cargo so that it will not shift – a loose load could change handling unexpectedly or be
thrown forward and strike occupants.
 This vehicle is not designed to tow or pull objects. Towing a trailer or pulling another vehicle or
other object will affect handling, stability, an d increase the risk of overturns and accidents.
Towing or pulling can also cause frame and vehicle damage.

EBU36672YCC-S clutchCheck the YCC-S clutch fluid level and cor-
rect if necessary. (See page 9-49.)
Check the operation of the drive select lever
and shift paddles at the start of each drive.TIPIf the YCC-S clutch fluid level was low, be
sure to check the clutch system for leak-
age.
 If any leakage is found, or if shifting is not
smooth, have a Yamaha dealer service the
vehicle. EBU35700Fittings and fastenersAlways check the tightness of chassis and
wheel fittings and fasteners before starting
off. Take the vehicle to a Yamaha dealer or re-
fer to the Service Manual for correct tighten-
ing torque.

Tire pressure
A tire pressure gauge is included as standard
equipment. Make two measurements of the
tire pressure and use the second reading.
Dust or dirt in the gauge could cause the first
reading to be incorrect.
Tire pressure must be checked and set when
the tires are cold. The tire pressure should be
the same on both sides, and must be adjust-
ed according to vehicle loading conditions.
Set the tire pressure as specified below.
WARNING! Operation of this vehicle with improper tire pressure may cause severe
injury or death from loss of control or roll-
over. Tire pressure below the minimum
specified could also cause the tire to dis-
lodge from the rim under severe driving
conditions.

Tire inspection
When the tire tread depth has worn to 3 mm
(0.12 in) replace the tire. If the tire has a nail or
glass fragments in it, or if the sidewall is
cracked, replace the tire.

Vehicle loading can affect handling as well as
the recommended tire pressure. (See pages
7-12, 6-9.)EBU36681Operation on different surfaces and
terrainsGo slowly and proceed with caution when op-
erating on an unfamiliar surface or terrain.
This vehicle may handle differently in certain
types of terrains or on certain surfaces. You
may come upon hidden rocks, bumps, or
holes without enough time to react. To avoid
loss of control or rollover, always be alert to
changing surfaces or terrain when operating
the vehicle.
Your Yamaha YXZ1000R has higher ground
clearance and other features to handle rug-
ged terrain, and as a result, can overturn in
situations where some vehicles may not.
Abrupt maneuvers or aggressive driving can
cause loss of control, including rollovers –even on flat, open areas. These rollovers can
result in crushed limbs and other serious inju-
ries or death to drivers or passengers.
When operating the vehicle in areas which re-
quire the use of a safety flag, mount the safety
flag pole on the flag pole bracket. See page
5-32.
Hills
Choose carefully which hills you attempt to
climb or descend. Avoid hills with slippery
surfaces or those where you will not be able
to see far enough ahead of you. Use commonUBAS7AE0.book Page 17 Wednesday, June 19, 2019 11:51 AM
