Starting the engine
w
Always make sure all control cables work
smoothly before you begin riding in cold
weather. If the control cables are frozen or
do not work smoothly, you could be unable
to control the ATV, which could lead to an
accident or collision.
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the main switch to “ON” and the
engine stop switch to “RUN”.
cC
The engine trouble warning light and the fuel
level warning light should come on, and then
go off.
If a warning light does not go off, see page
4-7 for the corresponding warning light cir-
cuit check.
3. Shift the transmission into neutral.

dealer to inspect it.
8When the clutch is disengaged with the trans-
mission in any position. However, it is recom-
mended to shift into neutral before starting the
engine.

return the throttle lever to the closed posi-
tion, apply the clutch lever, and then shift
the transmission into first gear.
2. While applying the brake pedal, turn the
reverse knob clockwise with your right
hand.
3. Apply the clutch lever and shift the trans-
mission into reverse by pressing down on
the shift pedal.

Shifting
This model has a 5-speed forward and 1-speed
reverse transmission. The transmission allows
you to control the amount of power you have
available at a given speed or for starting, accel-
erating, climbing hills, etc. To shift into neutral,
return the throttle lever to the closed 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.
cC
8Do not coast for long periods with the
engine 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
lubrication may cause damage.
8Always use the clutch when changing
gears. The engine, transmission and drive
train are not designed to withstand the
shock of forced shifting and can be dam-
aged by shifting without the clutch.

1. Lean towards inside of turn.
2. Support your weight on the outer footrest.
1. Se pencher vers l’intérieur du virage.
2. S’appuyer sur le repose-pied externe.
1. Inclínese hacia el interior del giro.
2. Descanse su peso en el descansapie externo.
7-43
As you approach a curve, slow down and begin
to turn the handlebars in the desired direction.
As you do so, put your weight on the footboard
to the outside of the turn (opposite your desired
direction) and lean your upper body into the
turn. Use the throttle to maintain an even speed
through the turn. This maneuver will let the
wheel on the inside of the turn slip slightly,
allowing the ATV to make the turn properly.
This procedure should be practiced at slow
speed many times in a large unpaved area with
no obstacles. If an incorrect technique is used,
your ATV may continue to go straight. If the ATV
doesn’t turn, come to a stop and then practice
the procedure again. If the riding surface is slip-
pery or loose, it may help to position more of
your weight over the front wheels by moving for-
ward on the seat. Once you have learned this
technique you should be able to perform it at
higher speeds or in tighter curves.
