NOTE:
This model is equipped with an ignition circuit
cut-off system.
The engine can be started under the following
conditions.
a. When the transmission is in neutral. At this
time the neutral indicator light should come
on. If the light does not come on, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect it.
b. When the transmission is in gear and the
rear brake lever is applied. However, it is
recommended to shift into neutral before
starting the engine.
5. Use the choke lever in reference to the fig-
ure:
Position 1: Cold engine start-
ambient temperature below 30°C.
Position 2: Warming up position.
Position 3: Cold engine start-
ambient temperature above 25°C
and warm engine start position.

Starting a warm engine
To start a warm engine, refer to the “Starting a
cold engine” section. The choke lever should not
be used. The throttle should be opened slightly.
EBU00184
Warming up
To get maximum engine life, always warm up
the engine before starting off. Never accelerate
hard with a cold engine! To see whether or not
the engine is warm, check if it responds to the
throttle normally with the choke lever turned off.

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 off-road 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.1

CROSSING A SLOPE
Traversing a sloping surface on your ATV
requires you to properly position your weight to
maintain proper balance. Be sure that you have
learned the basic riding skills on flat ground
before attempting to cross a sloping surface.
Avoid slopes with slippery surfaces or rough ter-
rain that may upset your balance.
As you travel across a slope, lean your body in
the uphill direction. It may be necessary to cor-
rect the steering when riding on loose surfaces
by pointing the front wheels slightly uphill. When
riding on slopes be sure not to make sharp turns
either up or down hill.

Do not smoke when checking the fuel sys-
tem. Fuel can ignite or explode, causing
severe injury or property damage. Make sure
there are no open flames or sparks in the
area, including pilot lights from water
heaters or furnaces.

4. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off
the ground.
5. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe out-
let to prevent moisture from entering.
6. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmosphere,
coat all exposed metal surfaces with a light
film of oil. Do not apply oil to any rubber
parts or the seat cover.
7. Remove the battery and charge it. Store it
in a dry place and recharge it once a
month. Do not store the battery in an
excessively warm or cold place (less than
0°C or more than 30°C).
NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before storing the
machine.
