Shifting
This model has a 6-speed forward and 1-speed re-
verse 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.CAUTION:_

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 lubricated
when the engine is running. Inadequate lu-
brication may cause damage.


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.

Parking on a slope
WARNING
Avoid parking on hills or other inclines. Park-
ing 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 front and rear brakes applied, apply
the parking brake and slowly release the
brake pedal.

With the engine idling, pull the clutch lever to dis-
engage the clutch and shift into 1st gear, and then
release the parking brake. Open the throttle grad-
ually, and at the same time, release the clutch le-
ver slowly. Once the ATV has attained adequate
speed, release the throttle lever and at same time,
quickly pull in the clutch lever and shift into 2nd
gear. Open the throttle part way and gradually re-
lease the clutch. Use this same procedure as you
move into the higher gears. Be sure to coordinate
the use of the throttle 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 operation of your
ATV.
WARNING
_ Always open the throttle gradually and release
the clutch lever slowly. Otherwise, the ATV
could wheelie which would increase the
chance of an accident. _
