GENERAL INFORMATIONGENERAL INFORMATIONAll figures, information or photos presented in this documentare up to date at the time of publication. However, they maychange without notice.Read and follow indications of the ATV user manual andinstallation guidelines carefully. Their contents remainsapplicable after installating of the System.This document should be read by every person who drives theATV equipped with the System.This document is an integral part of the System. Pass it alongto any new System owner.Consult legal authorities where you drive your ATV equippedwith the System before usage to ensure that you respect allapplicable laws and regulations.ATV track systems are designed to reduce ground pressureand increase vehicle traction. However, during normaloperating conditions, vehicle speed will be reduced, comparedto a wheeled vehicle.HINTS AND TIPSBefore leaving for an excursion, make sure you have thefollowing within arms reach : 13 mm, 14 mm, 15 mm, 16 mm,17 mm, 18 mm and 19 mm wrenches and sockets, one axe,one shovel, one tow cable, a lifting jack and one adjustablewrench.Generally, the slower you go, the better the traction will be.For riding or excursions on unknown, or remote terrain, makesure you have a cellular phone or satellite phone, a first aid kitand spare parts in your possession.When driving off trails, always be cautious to the presence ofhidden obstacles.When driving in deep snow, do not intentionally spin the track(tracks keep on turning while the vehicule does not).This couldcause the vehicle to get stuck.4

OFFSETS SPECIFICATIONSOFFSETS SPECIFICATIONSInstallation of track systems on a vehicle creates offsets inlength, height and width. These offsets are illustrated in thefigure below and their dimensions are specified in theaccompanying table.51Offset(length)Front:24 in (609 mm)Rear:27 in (685 mm)2Offset(width)Polaris:7 in (178 mm)Other models:6 in (152 mm)3Offset(height)Original tire: 24 in3 in (76 mm)

USER NOTICE AND DISCLAIMERUSER NOTICE AND DISCLAIMERThe Camoplast ATV T4S System was initially designed to beused in winter conditions and was then adapted to be used infall and spring conditions.This document holds important information regarding driving anATV equipped with the Camoplast ATV T4S System byCamoplast Hi-Performance Tracks. It is mandatory that everyuser takes the time to carefully read, understand and thenconsult this reference manual and user guide as well as theATV owner's manual as needed. When purchasing either a newor used track System, the user must obtain all documentationrelated to the System, including manuals and guides related tothe ATV on which the System is installed. If need be, contactthe Camoplast Hi-Performance Tracks products dealer nearestto you to obtain any additional information. You may alsoconsult the Camoplast Solideal Web site atwww.camoplastsolideal.com and call our technical support byemail at atvtracksystems@camoplastsolideal.com.Camoplast Hi-Performance Tracks believes that there arecertain risks related to the installation and use of the System.Our experience shows that the System is safe. However, theuser must be aware of the risks related with driving an ATV withthe particularities of this type of System. The ATV driver must,at all times, respect all applicable laws and regulations, theindications of the System manufacturer and the indicationsfrom the vehicle manufacturer fixed by law, namely when agerestrictions exist and ATV base equipment is required(headlights, flashers and brake lights, rearview mirror, etc.).The user must always wear adequate safety equipment, suchas a helmet, safety glasses (or visor), protective clothing, bootsand gloves. It is understood that driving while impaired orintoxicated presents a danger for the ATV user and others andis against the law.The System consists of many moving parts, includingtransmission wheels. If an object lodges itself or becomesjammed into the System and blocks the track, it is mandatory tostop the engine and the vehicle and apply the security brakebefore removing object said. By avoiding to do so, the userexposes himself to sudden movement of the ATV or tobreakage of a part or component coming from the System,which could cause severe injuries. It is also very important towear full length clothing and always avoid hanging or stringyaccessories.Driving an ATV equipped with such a System requiresparticular precautions and a knowledge of proper drivingtechniques of such vehicles. An evaluation by the user of theconditions and terrain (state of the ground, grade of hill, densityof snow, etc.) is equally essential.6

USER NOTICE AND DISCLAIMERAn ATV equipped with a System cannot compete and/or beused to perform stunts, acrobatics or other exploits, as thesecould result in loss of control or severe injuries.Insufficient knowledge of an ATV during down hill riding, climbsand crossing of obstacles and turns can result in tipping or rollover, and can cause severe injuries.Carrying a passenger, a load or attaching a tow can cause theATV to be less stable, and affect driveability. Unless otherwiseprescribed by law and by the ATV manufacturer, you must notcarry a passenger, loads or tow any objects.The installation of a System: Increases ground clearance. Changes the center of gravity. Increases the ATV width and weight. Reduces ground pressure.These parameters will effectively change driving characteristicsof an ATV equipped with the System.Consequently, it is highly recommended that the user adapthis driving style to the new characteristics mentionedabove. The driver must always use caution when he crossesobstacles, circulates through narrow paths, meets vehiclescoming in the opposing direction, etc.As it was designed, the System will considerably reduce theATV top speed and can falsify the speedometer. Generally, theSystem transmission wheel diameter is less than that of the tire.Therefore, the vehicle speed will be less than that actuallydisplayed. Whether the ATV is equipped or not with the System,users must always adapt the speed to actual driving conditions.Users must never exceed speed limits or drive faster than theircapacities allow. Excessive speed remains one of the maincauses of severe accidents on ATVs.Camoplast Hi-Performance Tracks is proud to offer ATVconversion kits within its wide range of products. ATV TrackSystems are not only reliable, but safe. However, there are risksinherent to driving an ATV equipped with the System. It istherefore very important that any driver familiarizes himself withproper driving techniques of an ATV equipped with a System,and that he adapts his driving to his level of experience andcontinually evaluates operating conditions and terrain to safelyand efficiently make the best of these CamoplastHi–Performance ATV track systems.7
