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.
Excessive speed, especially at night or with limited visibility, can result in insufficient time for you to react to terrain changes, to avoid unexpected obstacles, or to stop safely.
Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating this vehicle.
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.
Always wear an approved helmet, eye protection, and adequate clothing while operating this vehicle.
This vehicle is designed for adult use only. Check local laws for age requirements.
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.
When operating on hard-packed snow, ice, or when crossing roads, steering and braking ability are greatly reduced. Reduce speed and allow extra space to turn or stop.
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.
Repeated stops from high speed may cause fading or sudden loss of braking ability.
Parking brake may relax when used for long periods. Do not leave brake engaged for more than five minutes.
Before starting engine, check throttle, brake, and steering for proper operation. Make sure hood and side panels are latched. Be seated and in position to control the vehicle.

Oil injection system: Use unmixed fuel only. Check oil level when refueling.
