Sound Judgment
Riding Companions
Leave a lot of space between you and
other riders, especially in dusty and dirty
conditions, because it'll be difficult to see
the riders in front of you stopping.
Riding with companions on several vehi-
cles is not the same as riding one ATV
with a passenger.
Other Vehicles
Depending on where you're riding, you
might encounter ATV's, bikes, or motor
vehicles on public lands. Respect the pres-
ence of cars if you're crossing roads or
riding in public areas and make yourself
be seen. If you can't see other vehicles
coming, that means you're invisible, too.
Hikers
With the renewed interest in hiking,
camping, and other outdoor activities,
people can show up in remote areas
where you would never expect them. For
their sake, keep your eyes open.
Animals and Nature
Respect the outdoors that you love. Don't
use your ATV to chase animals or birds.
Drive around young trees rather than
over them. Keep clear of streams and
ditches with standing water.
Tread Lightly

Equipment

The last thing you expected was that your
ATV would break down in the middle of the
field... it's usually so reliable that some-
times you forget the ATV has its limits.
Maintenance
You have to maintain your ATV. The Gen-
eral Maintenance section of this Operator's
Manual tells you about taking care of your
ATV. If, at any time, abnormal noises,
vibrations, or improper functioning of any
component of this ATV is detected, DO
NOT OPERATE THE ATV. Take the ATV
to an authorized Arctic Cat ATV dealer for
inspection and adjustment or repair.
32 ! WARNING
and leave it as you
Cargo Limitations
Limit the ATV to the load capacity ratings
identified in the Load Capacity Ratings
chart. So if you and your passenger com-
bined weigh in at over 500 lb (226 kg),
leave some of that extra cargo at home.
The combined weight limit, including you,
your passenger, your rack cargo, and your
trailer, is a specified amount, so consult the
chart and monitor it carefully.
Extra weight on the ATV will also throw
you off balance if it's not distributed
evenly, side-to-side and front-to-rear.
Cargo has such a huge affect on handling
that you need to pay a lot of attention to
your speed. Even on really level areas,
you should keep it under 10 mph (16
kph) if you've got a trailer attached.
Avoid uneven terrain. Also, consider that
your braking distance is going to increase
with the more weight you carry.
Think about these when dealing
with cargo:
1. Rack weight limit
2. Trailer weight limit
3. Weight distribution
4. Speed
