3) Pulling a Trailer

Check the maximum axle loads of the vehicle identification plate (statutory plate).
Can-am T3 tractor can tow a trailer on the road. Check the trailer, the maximum
loads on the identification plate. Check the national packages limits the use of
a tractor-trailer on the road. Connect the trailer lights and set the slow moving
vehicle triangle behind the trailer.
NOTICE
A BRP approved rear hitch must be properly installed on the vehi-
cle for hauling trailers.
Riding this vehicle with a trailer substantially increases the risk of toppling, espe-
cially on inclined slopes. If a trailer is used behind the vehicle make sure that its
hitch is compatible with the one on the vehicle. Make sure the trailer is horizontal
with the vehicle. (In some instances a special extension may have to be installed
on the vehicle hitch). Use security chains or cables to secure the trailer with the
vehicle.
Reduce your speed when pulling a trailer and turn gradually. Avoid hills and rough
terrain. Never attempt steep hills. Allow more distance for braking, especially on
inclined surfaces and when a passenger (2-up models) is on board. Be careful not
to skid or slide.
If a trailer is used behind the vehicle make sure that its hitch is compatible with the
one on the vehicle. Make sure the trailer is horizontal with the vehicle. (In some
instances a special extension may have to be installed on the vehicle hitch). Use
security chains or cables to secure the trailer with the vehicle. This vehicle may re-
quire additional stopping distance if hauling heavy loads, especially on inclined sur-
faces and when a passenger (2-UP models) is on board.
Improperly loading a trailer may cause loss of control. Respect the recommended
maximum hauling capacity and maximum tongue load (Refer to
ING CAPACITY
table). Make sure there is at least some weight on the tongue.
Always make sure load is evenly distributed and safely secured on the trailer; an
evenly balanced trailer is easier to control.
