BOMBARDIER outlander max series Operator's Manual page 15

Always check for obstacles before operating in a new area. Never attempt to operate over
large obstacles, such as large rocks or fallen trees. Always follow proper procedures when
operating over obstacles as described further in this Operator's Guide. Do not forget, the
operator is responsible for the safety of the passenger. In doubt, disembark him to get through
the obstacles.
Always be careful when skidding or sliding. Never attempt with a passenger; overturn or
passenger ejection may occur. Learn to safely control skidding or sliding by practicing at low
speeds and on level smooth terrain. On extremely slippery surfaces, such as ice, go slowly
and be very cautious in order to reduce the chance of skidding out of control.
Never operate this vehicle in fast flowing water or in water deeper than that specified in this
Operator's Guide. Remember that wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. Test your
brakes after leaving water. If necessary, apply them several times to let friction dry out the
pads. The vehicle braking distance may be affected when riding with a passenger. Safely
reduce speed when riding with a passenger. Allow greater distance for braking.
Always be sure there are no obstacles or people behind the vehicle when you operate in
reverse. When it is safe to proceed in reverse, go slowly. Take account that the passenger
can obstruct your view.
Always use the size and type tires specified further in this Operator's Guide. Always maintain
proper tire pressure as described further in this Operator's Guide.
Never modify this vehicle through improper installation or use of accessories. Only use BRP's
approved accessories. Do not install passenger seats or use the racks to carry more than
one passenger.
Never exceed the stated load limits for this vehicle including operator and passenger, all other
loads and added accessories. Cargo should be properly distributed and securely attached.
Reduce speed and follow instructions in this manual for carrying cargo or pulling a trailer.
Allow greater distance for braking.
Do not forget, the operator is responsible for the safety of the passenger. If in doubt, disem-
bark him. Always practice the maneuvers described in this Operator's Guide without and with
passenger. Always remember that the vehicle handling, stability and braking distance may
be affected when riding with a passenger. Safely reduce speed when riding with a passenger.
Allow greater distance for braking. In some situations, this vehicle can be used easily with
the operator alone but not necessarily with a passenger. Use your common sense.
