Ice and Snow Build-up
Before driving, manually turn the skis to the left and right to be sure ice
and snow are not interfering with full left and right steering. If difficulty
is encountered, check for ice and snow build-up that may be obstructing
the steering linkage. Snow screens and bib kits are available through
your dealer to help reduce snow and ice build-up.
Driving on Slippery Surfaces
Excessive shifting of operator body weight when turning on hard-
packed snow or ice may lead to loss of vehicle control and result in seri-
ous injury or death. Slow down to maintain control under these condi-
tions.
It’s dangerous to drive on ice or other slippery surfaces. If it’s unavoid-
able, use extreme caution and operate at speeds no faster than a walk.
Never attempt an abrupt change of direction. The chance of “spin-out”
increases under these conditions.
WARNING
Ice and snow build-up may interfere with the steering of your machine, result-
ing in serious injury or death. Keep the underhood area free of snow and ice.
WARNING
Driving on ice or hard-packed snow reduces steering and braking control,
which may result in serious injury or death. Slow down and use caution.
