Driving Over Obstacles - Polaris Sportsman 850 Touring Owner's Manual For Maintenance And Safety

Driving Over Obstacles

Follow these precautions when operating over obstacles:
1. Always check for obstacles before operating in a new area.
2. Look ahead and learn to read the terrain. Be constantly alert for haz-
ards such as logs, rocks and low hanging branches.
3. Travel slowly and use extra caution when operating on unfamiliar
terrain. Not all obstacles are immediately visible.
4. Never attempt to operate over large obstacles, such as rocks or
fallen trees.
5. Always have a passenger dismount before operating over an obsta-
cle that could cause a fall from the vehicle or vehicle tipover.
