BRP CAN-AM OUTLANDER 6x6 2017 Series Operator's Manual page 57

To reduce the risk to lose control or the load carried, follow these recommenda-
tions.
Vehicle Settings When Carrying Load
When the total load exceeds 234 kg (515 lb), including weight of operator, cargo,
accessories and trailer tongue weight, inflate the tires to 48.3 kPa (7 PSI).
NOTE: When carrying heavy loads in cargo bed/box readjust suspension accord-
ingly
NOTE: When carrying heavy loads in cargo bed/box or pulling a trailer operate with
the shift lever in L (low range).
Loading the Front Cargo Rack
NOTICE
When loading or unloading, do not exceed the weight limit of 45 kg
(100 lb) for front load.
Load cargo as low as possible – a higher load can raise the vehicle's center of grav-
ity, which can reduce stability. Position cargo on the rack as evenly as possible.
Secure the load on the cargo rack. Do not secure cargo to the cage or other part of
the vehicle. If it is not properly secured, a load may slide or fall off, possibly striking
occupants or bystanders; or it may shift during riding, affecting the handling of the
vehicle.
Objects that are high may affect visibility for the driver and may act as projectiles
in case of an accident. Loads that protrude sideways can get snagged or caught in
bush, branches or other obstacles. Avoid covering and obstructing the brake lights
with the cargo. Ensure no cargo protrudes outside the cargo rack and that cargo
will not interfere with your visibility or control of the vehicle.
Do not overload cargo rack.
Never carry gasoline container(s) or any dangerous liquids on the cargo rack.
Loading the Cargo Bed
NOTICE
When loading or unloading, do not exceed the weight limit of 50 kg
(110 lb) on lower tailgate.
Load cargo as low as possible – a higher load can raise the vehicle's center of
gravity, which can reduce stability. Position cargo toward the front and center of
the cargo bed and as evenly as possible.
