Accessory Use and Vehicle Load-
ing Guidelines.
1. The combined weight of the
rider, gear,
weight and any accessories or
cargo must never exceed the
vehicle's load capacity of 172
kg (380 lbs).
2. Check accessory
brackets and other attach-
ment hardware to make sure
they provide a rigid, non-mov-
able mount.
3. Accessories added to the han-
dlebars of the machine should
be as light as possible. The
extra weight can cause the
vehicle to be harder to steer.
4. Do not add accessories or
cargo which interfere with con-
trols or other equipment.
5. Do not carry heavy or bulky
cargo. Cargo
designed to carry light items.
6. Distribute cargo weight evenly
between the front and rear of
the vehicle as well as both
sides of the vehicle. Locate
cargo weight as close to the
center of the vehicle as possi-
ble. (e.g. load cargo to the rear
of front racks and to the front
of rear racks). Do not let cargo
stick out beyond the edges of
the racks.

racks are
4-3
1 Front cargo rack: 30 kg (66 lbs)
2 Box: 2 kg (4.4 lbs)
3 Rear cargo rack:
60 kg (132 lbs)
7. Secure your load well. Shifting
weight can affect your ability to
handle the vehicle safely.
8. Ride at slow speeds and avoid
hills when carrying cargo. Car-
rying loads can affect the sta-
bility and handling of your ATV.
9. Allow enough stopping dis-
tance. Stopping
increases when you carry
loads. Use engine braking as
much as possible.
