Speed limiter
The speed limiter keeps the throttle from fully
opening, even when the throttle lever is
pushed to the maximum. Screwing in the ad-
juster limits the maximum engine power avail-
able and decreases the maximum speed of the
ATV.
WARNING
Improper adjustment of the speed limiter and
throttle could cause throttle cable damage or
improper throttle operation. You could lose
control, have an accident or be injured. Do not
turn the speed adjuster out more than 12 mm
or the throttle cable could be damaged. Al-
ways make sure the throttle lever free play is
adjusted to 3 ~ 5 mm. See page 8-49.

Parking brake
Use the parking brake when you have to start
the engine or park the machine, especially on a
slope. Apply the rear brake lever and push
down the lock plate to apply the parking brake.
Squeeze the rear brake lever to release the
parking brake.
WARNING
●Always set the parking brake before start-
ing the engine. The ATV could start mov-
ing unexpectedly if the parking brake is
not applied. This could cause loss of con-
trol or a collision.
●Always be sure you have released the
parking brake before you begin to ride.
The brake could overheat if you ride the
ATV without releasing the parking brake.
You could lose braking performance
which could cause an accident. You could
also wear out the brakes prematurely.

make sure there are no obstacles or people be-
hind you. When it is safe to proceed, go slow-
ly.

throttle position.
2. 10 ~ 20 hours:
Avoid prolonged operation above 3/4

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, place the machine transversely across
the incline, 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.
2. Shift the drive select lever to either low or
high range and stop the engine.
3. With the rear brake lever and pedal ap-
plied, apply the parking brake and slowly
release the rear brake pedal.

Speed limiter
For riders less experienced with this model,
this model is equipped with a speed limiter in
the throttle lever housing. The speed limiter
keeps the throttle from fully opening, even
when the throttle lever is pushed to the maxi-
mum. Screwing in the adjuster limits the max-
imum engine power available and decreases
the maximum speed of the ATV. Turning the
screw in decreases top speed and turning it out
increases top speed.
Loading and accessories
Use extra caution when riding the machine
with additional loads, such as accessories or
cargo. The machine’s handling may be ad-
versely affected. Reduce your speed when
adding additional loads.
