Auxiliary Brake CONTROLS WARNING Aggressively applying the auxiliary brake when backing down a hill may cause rear tipover, which could result in serious injury or death. Use caution when applying the auxiliary brake. Do not aggressively apply the auxiliary brake when going forward. The rear wheels may skid and slide sideways, causing loss of control and serious injury or death. Your Polaris ATV has an auxiliary brake (1) for added safety. It's located on the inside of the right floor board and is operated by the right foot. The auxiliary brake serves as a backup to the main brake system if the main system becomes inoperative. If the rear wheels slide while using the auxiliary brake, reduce brake pedal pressure to brake the rear wheels without skidding. 1 35
