FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Seat Removal
Pull up on the rear of the seat and tilt it toward the front of
the vehicle. Install the seat by sliding the tabs into the
front of the seat base. Push down firmly on the rear of the
seat until the pins are fully seated into the grommets.
Tip: For Model HD PTO ; a seat switch is located under the
operator’s seat. Set the seat aside if possible to avoid
disconnecting the seat switch. If the seat switch is
disconnected, the harness must be secured in it’s original
position to avoid harness damage.
Seat Belts
This POLARIS vehicle is equipped with three-point lap
and diagonal seat belts on all seats. Always make sure the
seat belts are secured for all riders before operating.
WARNING! Falling from a moving vehicle could result in serious
injury or death. Always fasten your seat belt securely before
operating or riding in the BRUTUS.
To wear the seat belt properly, follow this procedure:
1. For 3-point belts, pull the seat belt latch downward
and across your chest toward the buckle at the inner
edge of the seat. The belt should fit snugly across your
hips and diagonally across your chest. Make sure the
belt is not twisted.
2. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.
3. Release the strap, it will self-tighten.
4. To release the seat belt, press the square red button in the buckle's center.
Seat Belt Inspection
Inspect all seat belts for proper operation before each use of the vehicle.
1. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. The latch plate must slide smoothly
into the buckle. A click indicates that it's securely latched.
2. Push the red release latch in the middle of the buckle to make sure it releases freely.
3. Pull each seat belt completely out and inspect the full length for any damage, including
cuts, wear, fraying or stiffness. If any damage is found, or if the seat belt does not operate
properly, have the seat belt system checked and/or replaced by an authorized POLARIS
dealer.
4. To clean dirt or debris from the seat belts, sponge the straps with mild soap and water.
Do not use bleach, dye or household detergents.
