SAFETY INFORMATION
EBU13140
AN ATV IS NOT A TOY AND CAN BE HAZARD-OUS TO OPERATE. An ATV handles differently from other vehicles in-
cluding motorcycles and cars. A collision or roll-
over can occur quickly, even during routine
maneuvers such as turning and riding on hills or
over obstacles, if you fail to take proper precau-
tions.
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH can result if you do
not follow these instructions:
Read this manual and all labels carefully and
follow the operating procedures described.
Never operate an ATV without proper training
or instruction.
Always follow the age recommendation:
–A child under 16 years old should never oper-
ate an ATV with engine size greater than 90cc.
Never allow a child under age 16 to operate an
ATV without adult supervision, and never allow
continued use of an ATV by a child if he or she
does not have the abilities to operate it safely.

WARNING
_
Always turn off the engine when refueling.
Do not refuel right 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 while in the vicini-
ty 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 machine in another
vehicle, be sure it is kept upright and that
the fuel cock is in the “OFF” position. Oth-
erwise, 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.

Coolant temperature warning light “”
When the coolant temperature reaches a specified
level, this light comes on to warn that the coolant
temperature is too hot. If the light comes on during
operation, stop the engine as soon as it is safe to
do so and allow the engine to cool down for about
10 minutes.
To check the coolant temperature warning light,
shift the drive select lever into neutral, turn the key
to “ON”, and then press the start switch. If the light
does not come on, have a Yamaha dealer inspect
the electrical circuit.CAUTION:_
The engine may overheat if the ATV is
overloaded. If this happens, reduce the
load to specification.
Restart after making sure that the light is
out. Continuous use while the light is on
may cause damage to the engine.

Throttle lever
Once the engine is running, movement of the
throttle lever will increase the engine speed.
Regulate the speed of the machine by varying the
throttle position. Because the throttle is spring-
loaded, the machine will decelerate, and the en-
gine will return to an idle any time the hand is re-
moved from the throttle lever.
Before starting the engine, check the throttle to be
sure it is operating smoothly. Make sure it returns
to the idle position as soon as the lever is released.
WARNING
Malfunction of the throttle could make it diffi-
cult to speed up or slow down when you need
to. This could cause an accident. Check the
operation of the throttle lever before you start
the engine. If the throttle does not work
smoothly, check for the cause. Correct the
problem before riding the ATV or consult a
Yamaha dealer.
