Polaris PTV 4x4 Series 10 Owner's Manual page 42

CONTROLS
Operating a PTV with sticking or improperly operating throttle
controls could cause an accident and lead to severe injury or
death.
Never start or operate a PTV with a sticking or improperly
operating throttle. Always contact your dealer for service if throttle
problems arise.
Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle
system can result in an accident if the throttle lever sticks during
operation. Always check the lever for free movement and return
before starting the engine. Also check occasionally during
operation.
Throttle Lever
Engine speed and vehicle
movement are controlled by
pressing the throttle lever (1).
The throttle lever is spring
loaded. Engine speed returns
to idle when the lever is
released.
This vehicle is equipped with
a Polaris Electronic Throttle
Control (ETC), which is designed to reduce the risk of a frozen or
stuck throttle. If the throttle cable should stick in an open position
when the operator releases the throttle lever, the engine will stop, and
power to the rear wheels will cease.
The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) stops the engine in the
event of a throttle system malfunction and is provided for your
safety. Do not attempt to modify the ETC system or replace it
with any after market throttle mechanisms.
