Polaris 2000 Universal Snow Owner's Safety And Maintenance Manual page 16

Driving 2-Up
When operating a 2-Up machine with a passenger, the driver should be aware that
more space will be required to make turns, and a longer distance will be necessary
for stopping. Lower speeds should be observed whenever riding 2-Up.
CAUTION: Always make certain the passenger remains seated behind the driver,
facing forward, with both feet placed firmly on the running boards. Reduce operat-
ing speed and be particularly careful to avoid "jumping" your snowmobile.
Some Polaris snowmobile models are designed for two occupants. A decal on the
hood of these models indicates that the vehicle is designed for one operator and
one passenger only. Machines designated as double occupant should never be
operated with more than two people on board. When traveling with a passenger
aboard, it is the driver's responsibility to operate the machine in a safe manner.
Remember that control becomes more difficult with two people on board. Reduce
speeds to retain control!

vehicle in certain extreme
driving situations.
Track
Inspection
Driving at wide-open
throttle for extended peri-
ods of time in marginal lu-
brication could severely
damage track rods, break
track edges, and cause
other track damage. Ex-
amples of marginal lubrication would include lakes without snow cover, icy trails
and no-snow conditions.
Always inspect for damage before using the vehicle. Use of traction products such
as studs, ice growsers, paddles, etc. will increase the possibility of track damage
and/or failure. Operating the snowmobile with a damaged track will increase the
possibility of track damage and/or failure, which could cause loss of control
resulting in severe injury or death.
NOTE: Track damage or failure caused by operation on ice or poor lubrication
conditions will void the track warranty.
Do Not Operate Engine With Intake Silencer or Filter Removed
When operating engine with intake silencer or filter removed, damage to the engine
may occur.
