9. CARRYING LOADS
Your ATV has been designed to carry a certain amount of load. CARGO
WEIGHT should be evenly distributed(1/3 on the front and 2/3 on the rear )
and mounted as low as possible. When operating over rough or hilly terrain,
reduce speed and cargo to maintain stable driving conditions. Never exceed
the weights specified in your Owner's Manual.
Maximum trailer weight-418 lbs (190kg) on level ground. Maximum vertical
hitch weight-22 lbs (10kg).
Improper loading of the front rack can obstruct the headlight beam, reducing
night visibility. Do not obstruct the headlight beam with cargo.
Use of low forward gear is recommended in heavy pulling situations to
extend belt life.
WARNING
Correct loading of this vehicle is necessary to maintain proper stability and
operating characteristics. Overloading or incorrect positioning of the load
affects the vehicle's turning, stopping distance and stability. Failure to follow
loading requirements could cause severe injury or death.
Important Safeguards
To reduce risk of injury or machine damage when carrying loads, read and
follow the warnings listed below:
