Your vehicle can help you perform a number of different LIGHT tasks ranging

from snow removal to pulling wood or carrying cargo. A variety of accessories

are available from your authorized Can-Am Off-road dealer. To prevent possible

injury, follow the instructions and warnings that accompany the accessory. Al-

ways respect the load limits of the vehicle. Overloading the vehicle can over-

stress the components and cause failure. Avoid overexerting yourself if you lift or

pull heavy loads or manually push the vehicle.
