Hazard
The throttle cable is too short, not allowing for all available ergonomics adjustments of the steering system. Moreover, when the handlebar is fully steered to the left, the snowmobile may start to accelerate by itself. This can cause a loss of control and serious injuries to the user or bystanders. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive.
