Never attempt wheelies, jumps, or other
stunts.


Always inspect your ATV each time you use
it to make sure it is in safe operating condi-
tion. Always follow the inspection and
maintenance procedures and schedules de-
scribed in this manual.


Always keep both hands on the handlebars
and both feet on the footboards of the ATV
during operation.


Always go slowly and be extra careful when
operating on unfamiliar terrain. Always be
alert to changing terrain conditions when
operating the ATV.


Never operate on excessively rough, slip-
pery or loose terrain until you have learned
and practiced the skills necessary to control
the ATV on such terrain. Always be espe-
cially cautious on these kinds of terrain.

Fuel• Check fuel level.
• Fill with fuel if necessary.5-9 ~ 5-11
Engine oil• Check oil level.
• Fill with oil if necessary.5-13 ~ 5-15,
8-17 ~ 8-29
Coolant reservoir• Check coolant level.
• Fill with coolant if necessary.5-17, 8-31
Drive chain• Check chain slack and condition.

6. Shift into second gear (be careful not to
shift into neutral).
7. Open the throttle part way and gradually
release the clutch lever.
8. Follow the same procedure when shifting
to the next higher gear.
WARNING
Opening the throttle abruptly or releasing the
clutch lever too quickly would increase the
chance of an accident or could make the ma-
chine wheelie including overturn. Always
open the throttle gradually and release the
clutch lever gradually.

To decelerate:
When slowing down or stopping, release the
throttle and apply the brakes smoothly and
evenly. As you slow down, shift to a lower
gear. Be sure that the engine has sufficiently
slowed before engaging a lower gear. Improp-
er use of the brakes or shifting can cause the
tires to lose traction, reducing control and in-
creasing the possibility of an accident.
WARNING
Make sure the engine has sufficiently slowed
before shifting to a lower gear. Engaging a
lower gear when the engine speed is too high
could make the wheels stop rotating. This
could cause loss of control, an accident and in-
jury. It could also cause engine or drive train
damage.

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 le-
ver.
3. With the front and rear brakes applied, ap-
ply the parking brake and slowly release
the rear brake pedal.

During operation
Always keep your feet on the footboards dur-
ing operation. Otherwise your feet may contact
the rear wheels.
WARNING
Always keep both hands on the handlebars
and both feet on the footboards of your ATV
during operation. Removing even one hand or
foot can reduce your ability to control the ATV
or could cause you to lose your balance and
fall off of the ATV. If you remove a foot from a
footboard, your foot or leg may come into con-
tact with the rear wheels, which could injure
you or cause an accident.
Avoid wheelies and jumping. You may lose
control of the machine or overturn.
WARNING
Never attempt stunts, such as wheelies or
jumps. Don’t try to show off.

With the engine idling, pull the clutch lever to
disengage the clutch and shift into 1st gear,
and then release the parking brake. Open the
throttle gradually, and at the same time, re-
lease the clutch lever 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 release 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 con-
trol. Avoid higher speeds until you are thor-
oughly familiar with the operation of your ATV.
WARNING
Always open the throttle gradually and re-
lease the clutch lever slowly. Otherwise, the
machine could wheelie which would increase
the chance of an accident.

CAUTION:
Do not shift gears without releasing the throt-
tle. Damage to the engine or drive train may
occur.
When slowing down or stopping, release the
throttle and apply the brakes smoothly and
evenly. As you slow down, shift to a lower
gear. Be sure that the engine has sufficiently
slowed before engaging a lower gear. Improp-
er use of the brakes or shifting can cause the
tires to lose traction, reducing control and in-
creasing the possibility of an accident.
WARNING
Make sure the engine has sufficiently slowed
before shifting to a lower gear. Engaging a
lower gear when the engine speed is too high
could cause the wheels to stop rotating.

TURNING YOUR ATV
To achieve maximum traction while riding off-
road, the two rear wheels are mounted solidly
on one axle and turn together at the same
speed. Therefore, unless the wheel on the in-
side of the turn is allowed to slip or lose some
traction, the ATV will resist turning. A special
turning technique must be used to allow the
ATV to make turns quickly and easily. It is es-
sential that this skill be learned first at low
speed.
WARNING
Always follow proper procedures for turning
as described in this Owner’s Manual.
Practice turning at low speeds before attempt-
ing to turn at faster speeds. Do not turn at
speeds too fast for your skills or the condi-
tions.
