Starting a cold engine
w
Always make sure all control cables work
smoothly before you begin riding in cold
weather. If the control cables are frozen or
do not work smoothly, you could be unable
to control the ATV, which could lead to an
accident or collision.
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the fuel cock to “ON”.
3. Turn the main switch to “ON” and the engine
stop switch to “RUN”.
4. Shift the transmission into neutral.
5. Use the starter (choke) in reference to the
figure:

EBU01981
Shifting
This model has a 6-speed forward transmission.
The transmission allows you to control the
amount of power you have available at a given
speed or for starting, accelerating, climbing hills,
etc. To shift into neutral, return the throttle lever
to its original position, apply the clutch and
repeatedly depress the shift pedal until it stops.
When it stops, it will be in first gear. Raise the
pedal slightly to neutral.

If your ATV has stalled or stopped and you
believe you can continue up the hill, restart care-
fully to make sure you do not lift the front wheels
which could cause you to lose control. If you are
unable to continue up the hill, dismount the ATV
on the uphill side. Physically turn the ATV
around and then descend the hill.
If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT use the
rear brake to stop or try to put the ATV in gear.
The ATV could easily tip over backwards.
Instead, apply the front brake gradually, or dis-
mount the ATV immediately on the uphill side.

7-77
8If your ATV starts to slide sideways:
Steer in the direction of the slide if you have
the room.
Applying the brakes or accelerating is not rec-
ommended until you have corrected the slide.
(See pages 7-71–7-73.)
8If your ATV can’t make it up a hill you are try-
ing to climb:
Turn the ATV around if you still have forward
speed. If not, stop, dismount on the uphill side
of the ATV and physically turn the ATV
around. If the ATV starts to slip backwards
DO NOT USE THE REAR BRAKE - the ATV
may tip over on top of you. Dismount the ATV
on the uphill side. (See pages 7-45–7-55.)

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. Turn the engine off, and then check the oil
level and correct it if necessary.
EBU01080
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.

9-5
7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery
cleaner to keep the cover pliable and
glossy.
8. Automotive type wax may be applied to all
painted and chrome plated surfaces.
Avoid combination cleaner-waxes. Many
contain abrasives which may mar the paint
or protective finish.
When finished, start the engine and let it
idle for several minutes.
w
Wet brakes may have reduced stopping abili-
ty, increasing the chance of an accident.
Test the brakes after washing. Apply the
brakes several times at slow speeds to let
friction dry out the linings.
