Shifting
This model has a 6-speed forward and 1-speed
reverse transmission. The transmission allows
you to control the amount of power you have
available at a given speed or for starting, accel-
erating, 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 neu-
tral.
CAUTION:
1. Do not coast for long periods with the en-
gine off, and do not tow the machine a
long distance. Even in neutral position,
the transmission is only properly lubricat-
ed when the engine is running. Inade-
quate lubrication may cause damage.
2. Always use the clutch when changing
gears. The engine, transmission and driv-
etrain are not designed to withstand the
shock of forced shifting and can be dam-
aged by shifting without the clutch.

l
Do not mount an accessory where it could
interfere with your ability to control the
ATV. Examples include (but are not limited
to) a heavy or bulky object attached to the
handlebars which could make steering diffi-
cult, an accessory that limits your ability to
move around on the seat, or one that limits
your view.
l
Use extra caution when riding an ATV with
accessories. The ATV may handle different-
ly than it does without accessories.

Loading
As originally equipped, this ATV is not de-
signed to carry cargo or tow a trailer. If you
choose to add accessories so that you can car-
ry cargo or tow a trailer, you must use com-
mon sense and good judgement. Keep the
following points in mind:

EL
l
Ride more slowly than you would without a
load. The more weight you carry, the slower
you should go. Although conditions vary, it
is good practice not to exceed 2nd gear
whenever you are carrying heavier loads or
when towing a trailer.
l
Allow more braking distance. A heavier ve-
hicle takes longer to stop.
l
Avoid making sharp turns unless at very
slow speeds.
l
Avoid hills and rough terrain. Choose ter-
rain carefully. Added weight affects the sta-
bility and handling of the ATV.WARNING
Never exceed the stated load capacity for this
ATV. Overloading this ATV or carrying or tow-
ing cargo improperly could cause changes in
vehicle handling which could lead to an acci-
dent. Cargo should be properly distributed
and securely attached. Reduce speed when
carrying cargo or pulling a trailer. Allow great-er distance for braking.

As you approach a curve, slow down and begin
to turn the handlebars in the desired direction.
As you do so, put your weight on the footboard
to the outside of the turn (opposite your desired
direction) and lean your upper body into the
turn. Use the throttle to maintain an even speed
through the turn. This maneuver will let the
wheel on the inside of the turn slip slightly, al-
lowing the ATV to make the turn properly.
This procedure should be practiced at slow
speed many times in a large off-road area with
no obstacles. If an incorrect technique is used,
your ATV may continue to go straight. If the
ATV doesn’t turn, come to a stop and then
practice the procedure again. If the riding sur-
face is slippery or loose, it may help to position
more of your weight over the front wheels by
moving forward on the seat. Once you have
learned this technique you should be able to
perform it at higher speeds or in tighter curves.
1. Lean towards inside of turn.
2. Support your weight on the outer footrest.
1. Se pencher vers l’intérieur du virage.
2. S’appuyer sur le repose-pied externe.
1. Inclínese hacia el interior del giro.
2. Descanse su peso en el descansapie externo.

If your ATV can’t make it up a hill you are
trying to climb:
Turn the ATV around if you still have for-
ward 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. Dis-
mount the ATV on the uphill side. (See pag-
es 7-45 ~ 7-53.)
l
If your ATV is traversing a sloping surface:
Be sure to ride with your weight positioned
towards the uphill side of the ATV to main-
tain proper balance. If the ATV starts to tip,
steer down the hill (if there are no obstacles
in your way) to regain balance. If you dis-
cover that the ATV is going to tip over, dis-
mount on the uphill side. (See pages 7-59 ~
7-61.)

CAUTION:
Excessive water pressure may cause water
seepage and deterioration of wheel bearings,
brakes, transmission seals and electrical de-
vices. Many expensive repair bills have result-
ed from improper high pressure detergent
applications such as those available in coin-
operated car washers.
4. Once the majority of the dirt has been
hosed off, wash all surfaces with warm
water and mild, detergent-type soap. An
old toothbrush or bottle brush is handy
for hard-to-get-at places.
5. Rinse the machine off immediately with
clean water and dry all surfaces with a
chamois, clean towel or soft absorbent
cloth.
6. Dry the chain and lubricate it to prevent
rust.
7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery
cleaner to keep the cover pliable and
glossy.
