Driving Safely

Driving in Reverse

Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:
1. Always avoid
backing downhill.
2. Back slowly.
3. When in reverse,
apply the brakes
lightly for
stopping.
4. Avoid turning at
sharp angles in
reverse.
5. Never open the
throttle suddenly
while backing.
Failure to use caution when operating in reverse can result in
serious injury or death. Before shifting into reverse, always
check for obstacles or people behind the vehicle. When it's safe
to proceed, back slowly.
Do not use the override switch unless additional power is
required for vehicle movement. Use with caution.
Avoid backing on inclines, and avoid turning at sharp angles.
NOTE: This Polaris ATV is equipped with a reverse speed limiter.
The override button should be used with caution as rearward vehicle
speed is greatly increased. Do not operate at wide open throttle. Open
the throttle just enough to maintain a desired speed.
Excessive throttle operation while in the speed limit mode may
cause fuel to build in the exhaust, resulting in engine popping
and/or engine damage.
