MOVING LOADS AND DOING WORK

Working with your Vehicle

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 avail-
able from your authorized Can-Am dealer. To prevent possible injury, follow the in-
structions and warnings that accompany the accessory. Always respect the load
limits of the vehicle. Overloading the vehicle can overstress the components and
cause failure. Avoid overexerting yourself if you lift or pull heavy loads or manually
push the vehicle.

Carrying Loads

Any load carried on the vehicle will affect the handling, stability and braking
distance of the vehicle. Do not exceed the load limits of the vehicle, including
the weight of operator, cargo, accessories and trailer tongue weight. Always be
aware that the "load" may slide or fall off and create an accident. Avoid loads that
may protrude sideways and get snagged or caught in brush or other obstacles.
Avoid covering and obstructing the headlights or taillight with the cargo.
Always be aware that the "load" may slide or fall off and cause an accident.
The vehicle handling, stability and braking distance are affected when load-
ing racks and using the vehicle. Correct loading and weight distribution
are therefore important. Never overload, tow or carry cargo improperly.
Always ensure the cargo is safely secured and properly distributed on the
rack(s) before operating the vehicle. Safely reduce speed according to
terrain conditions when carrying cargo or pulling a trailer, and avoid hills
and rough terrain. Allow greater distance for braking. Always secure cargo
as low as possible on the rack(s) to reduce the effect of a higher center of
gravity. Failure to follow the recommendations here could cause changes
in vehicle handling which could lead to an accident.
