7. Open the throttle part way and gradually
release the clutch lever.
8. Follow the same procedure when shifting to
the next higher gear.
w
Opening the throttle abruptly or releasing the
clutch lever too quickly would increase the
chance of an accident or could make the
machine wheelie including overturn. Always
open the throttle gradually and release the
clutch lever gradually.

To decelerate:
When slowing down or stopping, release the
throttle and apply the brakes smoothly and
evenly. As you slow down, shift to a lower gear.
Be sure that the engine has sufficiently slowed
before engaging a lower gear. Improper use of
the brakes or shifting can cause the tires to lose
traction, reducing control and increasing the
possibility of an accident.
w
Make sure the engine has sufficiently slowed
before shifting to a lower gear. Engaging a
lower gear when the engine speed is too
high could make the wheels stop rotating.
This could cause loss of control, an accident
and injury. It could also cause engine or
drive train damage.

Parking on a slope
w
Avoid parking on hills or other inclines.
Parking on a hill or other incline could cause
the ATV to roll out of control, increasing the
chance of an accident. If you must park on
an incline, put the machine in low gear, apply
the parking brake, and block the front and
rear wheels with rocks or other objects.
Do not park the ATV at all on hills that are so
steep you could not walk up them easily.
1. Bring the machine to a stop by applying the
brakes in low gear.
2. Stop the engine and release the clutch
lever.
3. With the rear brake applied, apply the park-
ing brake and slowly release the brake
pedal.

During operation
Always keep your feet on the footboards during
operation. Otherwise your feet may contact the
rear wheels.
w
Always keep both hands on the handlebars
and both feet on the footboards of your ATV
during operation. Removing even one hand
or foot can reduce your ability to control the
ATV or could cause you to lose your balance
and fall off of the ATV. If you remove a foot
from a footboard, your foot or leg may come
into contact with the rear wheels, which
could injure you or cause an accident.

Avoid wheelies and jumping. You may lose con-
trol of the ATV or overturn.
w
Never attempt stunts, such as wheelies or
jumps. Don’t try to show off.
Modifications
w
Never modify this ATV through improper
installation or use of accessories. All parts
and accessories added to this vehicle should
be genuine Yamaha or equivalent compo-
nents designed for use on this ATV and
should be installed and used according to
instructions. Improper installation of acces-
sories or modification of this vehicle may
cause changes in handling which in some
situations could lead to an accident. If you
have questions, consult an authorized ATV
dealer.

With the engine idling, pull the clutch lever to
disengage the clutch and shift into 1st gear, and
then release the parking brake. Open the throttle
gradually, and at the same time, release the
clutch lever slowly. Once the ATV has attained
adequate speed, release the throttle lever and at
the same time, quickly pull in the clutch lever
and shift into 2nd gear. Open the throttle part
way and gradually release the clutch. Use this
same procedure as you move into the higher
gears. Be sure to coordinate the use of the throt-
tle and shift pedal properly. If the throttle is
applied too abruptly or if the throttle is not
released during shifting, or if the shift pedal is
not released before applying the throttle, the
front wheels may lift off the ground resulting in a
loss of directional control. Avoid higher speeds
until you are thoroughly familiar with the opera-
tion of your ATV.
