Operation Warning
An operation warning decal is present on the console of all Polaris
snowmobiles:
S To avoid serious injury or death, read
and understand all warnings and the
Owner’ s Manual before operation. If
manual is missing, contact a Polaris
dealer for a replacement.
S This vehicle is capable of high
speeds. Buried objects or uneven
terrain can cause loss of control.
Reduce speed and use extreme
caution when operating in unfamiliar
terrain.
S Excessive speed, especially at night or with limited visibility, can result
in insufficient time for you to react to terrain changes, to avoid unex-
pected obstacles, or to stop safely.
S Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating this vehicle.
S In an emergency, push down the Auxiliary Shut-Off Switch, located on
the top of the throttle control assembly, to stop the engine. Then pull the
brake lever to stop.
S Always wear an approved helmet, eye protection, and adequate cloth-
ing while operating this vehicle.
S This vehicle is designed for adult use only. Check local laws for age re-
quirements.
S When operating with a passenger (on approved models only), reduce
speed and allow extra space for steering and stopping. A passenger
reduces your ability to control the vehicle.
S When operating on hard-packed snow, ice, or when crossing roads,
steering and braking ability are greatly reduced. Reduce speed and al-
low extra space to turn or stop.
S To maintain vehicle control on ice or hard-packed surfaces, you should
have a proper balance of ski carbides to track studs. See Owner’s
Manual for proper use of traction products.
S Repeated stops from high speed may cause fading or sudden loss of
braking ability.
S Parking brake may relax when used for long periods. Do not leave brake
engaged for more than five minutes.
S Before starting the engine, check throttle, brake, and steering for proper
operation. Make sure hood is latched. Be seated and in position to con-
trol the vehicle.
Oil injection system: Use unmixed fuel only. Check oillevel when refueling.
