Hauling Cargo

The SPORTSMAN was designed with racks to carry small loads. Read and follow all of the instructions for hauling cargo on the following pages.

Never carry cargo on the OUTLAW.

WARNING

Overloading the vehicle or carrying cargo improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of control, which can result in serious injury or death. Always follow these precautions when hauling cargo:

  • Place 1/3 of the cargo weight on the front rack and 2/3 on the rear rack. Carrying loads on only one rack increases the chance of a tipover.

  • Slow down. Allow more space for stopping the ATV when hauling cargo.

  • Never exceed the weight capacities for the vehicle. Capacities are listed in the specifications section beginning on Outlaw 110.

  • Secure all cargo before driving. Loose cargo may move or shift, which could cause loss of control or a tipover. Use suitable tie-downs or rope to secure the cargo. Do not allow cargo or tie straps to hang over the edges of the racks.

  • Carry only small loads that fit on the racks. Tall loads raise the center of gravity of the vehicle and may cause loss of control or a tipover.

  • Never allow a person to ride on the racks.

  • Never tow or pull an object behind the ATV. A wagon, sled or other object towed behind an ATV does not have brakes or steering. The object may overturn or collide with other objects and cause serious injuries.
