WARNING
_

Always turn off the engine when refueling.


Do not refuel immediately after the engine
has been running and is still very hot.


Do not spill gasoline on the engine or ex-
haust pipe/muffler when refueling. Never
refuel while smoking, or in the vicinity of
sparks, open flames, or other sources of
ignition such as the pilot lights of water
heaters and clothes dryers. Gasoline can
catch fire and you could be burned.


When transporting the ATV in another ve-
hicle, be sure it is kept upright and that the
fuel cock is in the “OFF” position. Other-
wise, fuel may leak out of the carburetor or
fuel tank.


Gasoline is poisonous. If you should swal-
low some gasoline or inhale a lot of gaso-
line vapor, or get some gasoline in your
eyes, see your doctor immediately. If gaso-
line spills on your skin, wash with soap
and water. If gasoline spills on your cloth-
ing, change your clothes.

Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha machines receive a rigid in-
spection before shipment from the factory, trouble
may occur during operation.
Any problem in the fuel, compression, or ignition
systems can cause poor starting and loss of pow-
er. The troubleshooting chart describes a quick,
easy procedure for making checks. If your ma-
chine requires any repair, take it to a Yamaha
dealer.
The skilled technicians at a Yamaha dealership
have the tools, experience, and know-how to prop-
erly service your machine. Use only genuine
Yamaha parts on your machine. Imitation parts
may look like Yamaha parts, but they are often in-
ferior. Consequently, they have a shorter service
life and can lead to expensive repair bills.
WARNING
Do not smoke when checking the fuel system.
Fuel can ignite or explode, causing severe in-
jury or property damage. Make sure there are
no open flames or sparks in the area, including
pilot lights from water heaters or furnaces.
