SAFETY

Operator Safety

Follow the recommended maintenance program outlined beginning on

page 59 of this manual to ensure that all critical components on the

snowmobile are thoroughly inspected by your dealer at specific

mileage intervals.

WARNING

Driving a snowmobile requires your full attention. DO NOT drink

alcohol or use drugs or medications before or while driving or

riding as a passenger. They will reduce your alertness and slow

your reaction time.
Snowmobiles are capable of traveling at high speeds. Use extra

caution to ensure operator safety. Make sure your snowmobile is

in excellent operating condition at all times. Always check major

and vital safety components before every ride.
All Polaris snowmobiles are designed and tested to provide safe

operation when used as directed. Failure of critical machine

components may result from operation with any modifications,

especially those that increase speed or power. DO NOT

MODIFY YOUR MACHINE. The snowmobile may become

aerodynamically unstable at speeds higher than those for which it

is designed. Loss of control may occur at higher speeds.

Modifications may also create a safety hazard and lead to bodily

injury.
The warranty on your entire machine is terminated if any

equipment has been added, or any modifications have been

made, to increase the speed or power of the snowmobile.
