EBU00063Throttle lever
Once the engine is running, movement of the
throttle lever will increase the engine speed.
Regulate the speed of the machine by varying
the throttle position. Because the throttle is
spring-loaded, the machine will decelerate, and
the engine will return to an idle any time the hand
is removed from the throttle lever.
Before starting the engine, check the throttle to
be sure it is operating smoothly. Make sure it
returns to the idle position as soon as the lever is
released.wMalfunction of the throttle could make it diffi-
cult to speed up or slow down when you
need to. This could cause an accident. Check
the operation of the throttle lever before you
start the engine. If the throttle does not work
smoothly, check for the cause. Correct the
problem before riding the ATV or consult a
Yamaha dealer.

EBU00180Starting a warm engine
To start a warm engine, refer to the “Starting a
cold engine” section. The starter (choke) should
not be used. The throttle should be opened
slightly.EBU00538Warming up
To get maximum engine life, always warm up
the engine before starting off. Never accelerate
hard with a cold engine! To see whether or not
the engine is warm, check if it responds to the
throttle normally with the starter (choke) turned
off.NOTE:
When the parking brake is used, engine speed
is limited to 2,300 r/min. Be sure the parking
brake is released before moving the throttle
lever. Otherwise, the engine will misfire, pre-
venting normal operation.

EBU00768Transmission oil
Transmission oil measurement
1. Place the machine on a level place.
2. Warm up the engine for several minutes
and then stop it.
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it off with a
clean rag. Insert the dipstick in the filler
hole without screwing it in.NOTE:
Wait a few minutes until the oil level settles
before checking.4. Remove the dipstick and inspect the oil
level.
5. The oil level should be between the maxi-
mum and minimum marks. If the level is
low, add oil to raise it to the proper level.
6. Install the dipstick.

7. Start the engine and warm up for a few
minutes. While warming up, check for oil
leakage. If oil leakage is found, stop the
engine immediately, and check for the
cause.
8. Check the oil level.EBU00764*Cooling system
1. Check the coolant level in the coolant
reservoir when the engine is cold as the
coolant level will vary with engine temper-
ature. The coolant level should be
between the maximum and minimum
marks.

12. Run the engine several minutes. Stop the
engine, and then check the coolant level in
the radiator. If it is low, add more coolant
until it reaches the top of the radiator.
13. Fill the coolant reservoir with coolant up to
the maximum level.
14. Install the coolant reservoir cap and check
for coolant leakage.NOTE:If any leakage is found, ask a Yamaha dealer to
inspect the cooling system.15. Install the radiator cover by installing the
bolts.

NOTE:
The air filter element should be cleaned every
20 ~ 40 hours. It should be cleaned and lubricat-
ed more often if the machine is operated in
extremely dusty areas. Each time filter element
maintenance is performed, check the air inlet to
the filter case for obstructions. Check the air
cleaner rubber joint to the carburetor and mani-
fold fittings for an air-tight seal. Tighten all fit-
tings securely to avoid the possibility of unfil-
tered air entering the engine.cCNever operate the engine with the air filter
element removed. This will allow unfiltered
air to enter, causing rapid engine wear and
possible engine damage. Additionally, opera-
tion without the filter element will affect car-
buretor jetting with subsequent poor perfor-
mance and possible engine overheating.

EBU00300Carburetor settings
In extremely cold weather, it is necessary to
change the carburetor settings to maintain opti-
mum engine performance and to prevent engine
damage.w8
Improperly servicing or adjusting the carbu-
retors could cause malfunction with the pos-
sibility of an accident or the carburetors
could leak fuel, which would be a fire hazard.
8
Carburetor adjustments should only be per-
formed by a Yamaha dealer. Do not attempt
to perform these procedures unless you
have mechanical knowledge and the neces-
sary tools.
8
Do not perform this procedure while the
engine is hot. Place a rag under each carbu-
retor to catch any fuel. Wipe up any spilled
fuel completely.
8
After servicing the carburetors, always check
throttle operation before operating the ATV
to make sure it is working correctly.
