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.
w
Opening the throttle abruptly or releasing the
clutch lever too quickly would increase the
chance of an accident or could make the
machine 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. Improper use of
the brakes or shifting can cause the tires to lose
traction, reducing control and increasing the
possibility of an accident.
w
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 injury. It could also cause engine or
drive train damage.

Parking on a slope
w
Avoid parking on hills or other inclines.
Parking 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 front brake.
2. With the front and rear brake applied, pull
the clutch lever, shift into the neutral posi-
tion, and then apply the parking brake.
3. Stop the engine by setting the engine stop
switch to “OFF”.

During operation
Always keep your feet on the footboards during
operation. Otherwise your feet may contact the
rear wheels.
w
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 contact with the rear wheels, which
could injure you or cause an accident.
Avoid wheelies and jumping. You may lose con-
trol of the ATV or overturn.
w
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, release the
clutch lever slowly. Once the ATV has attained
adequate speed, release the throttle lever and at
the 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 throt-
tle 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 opera-
tion of your ATV.
w
Always open the throttle gradually and
release the clutch lever slowly. Otherwise,
the ATV could wheelie which would increase
the chance of an accident.

cC
Do not shift gears without releasing the
throttle. 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. Improper use of
the brakes or shifting can cause the tires to lose
traction, reducing control and increasing the
possibility of an accident.
w
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 on unpaved sur-
faces, the two rear wheels are mounted solidly
on one axle and turn together at the same
speed. Therefore, unless the wheel on the
inside 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 essential
that this skill be learned first at low speed.
w
Always follow proper procedures for turning
as described in this Owner’s Manual.
Practice turning at low speeds before
attempting to turn at faster speeds. Do not
turn at speeds too fast for your skills or the
conditions.
