designed to ensure that all critical components on your child's snowmo-

bile are thoroughly inspected at various intervals. If you have any ques-

tions about the snowmobile, contact a Polaris dealer for assistance. See

page 82 for the part numbers of Polaris products.

Before you ride your new Polaris snowmobile, there are some important

things that you need to know. Your parents and Polaris want you to

enjoy riding your new snowmobile, and that's why you need to read and

understand the information in your owner's manual.

Ask your parents to explain anything you don't understand, and pay

close attention to the warnings and instructions you read. Your safety

and the safety of others is the most important thing to think about at all

times.

As the driver of the snowmobile, you must learn how to keep yourself

and those around you safe while you're riding. So read your manual, and

then enjoy riding your new Polaris snowmobile!

INTRODUCTION

Important Notes for Owners and Drivers

After reading this manual, store it in the snowmobile for convenient ref-

erence. It should remain with the snowmobile when the snowmobile is

sold.

You and your dealer must complete the registration form included with

your snowmobile and forward it to us. This completed form is necessary

to ensure warranty coverage.

NOTE: The illustrations and photos used in this manual are general represen-

tations. Your model may differ.

PARENTS: Do not allow anyone under the age of six (6) to operate this

machine. Review the information in this manual with any child who

may be operating the snowmobile. It is up to you to teach any operator

the proper and safe way to ride a snowmobile. You must set boundaries

and adhere to them, keeping the operator's safety foremost in your mind.

Never allow a child to operate this machine without adult supervision.

These units are not designed for adult use. Serious damage to the vehicle

may occur if the maximum rider weight capacity is exceeded. The max-

imum rider weight capacity is 140 lbs. (63.5 kg).

CHILDREN: Before you ride your new Polaris snowmobile, there are

some important things that you need to know. Your safety and the safety

of others is the most important thing to think about at all times. As the

driver of the snowmobile, you must learn how to keep yourself and

those around you safe while you're riding.

Pay attention when you see this symbol:

IMPORTANT

Parents should sit down with their children and read the Youth Section with

them before allowing them to use this snowmobile. Parents must also read the

Adult Section before allowing their children to ride this snowmobile.

This is the safety alert symbol. When you see this symbol on your

snowmobile or in this manual it means PAY ATTENTION because you

could die or be seriously hurt if you don't follow the instructions.

INTRODUCTION

Preservation of the Environment

Teach your child to drive their snowmobile with consideration for the

protection and preservation of the environment.

Noise

One of the most publicized subjects with regard to snowmobiles is

noise. The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), which is the stan-

dard-setting body for snowmobiles, has recommended that snowmobiles

conform to prescribed sound levels. This Polaris snowmobile has been

engineered to conform to these SAE standards.

In order to be meaningful, all regulations require the cooperation of the

snowmobile owner. Muffling systems, designed to reduce noise levels,

should not be altered or removed. Snowmobile drivers must be aware

that they have a public responsibility to operate their snowmobiles with

concern for others. As a snowmobile operator you may not realize the

sound of your snowmobile may annoy non-snowmobilers. We are

attempting to do our part through the manufacture of quieter machines,

and we also ask your help in the effort to further reduce the impact of

noise.

Air Pollution

As a part of Polaris' plan for the snowmobile's compatibility within the

environment, our engineers are investigating ways to reduce emission

levels of engines. We expect our efforts to lead to the reduction of

potential air pollution.

The four-stroke engine used in this snowmobile produces less exhaust

emissions and reduces noise, as well.

In addition to technological research, we also suggest that governmental

agencies, manufacturers, distributors, dealers, ecologists, and other

interested parties work together to develop data on environmental top-

ics. We will continue to participate in this type of study so that someday

we may find the answers to these difficult issues.
