GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 1 - 6
o Take off the fuel tank cap.
o Set the choke to the full position.
o Unplug the tail light connector located under the light
itself, underneath the rear fender.
o Release the rear module from its four rubber latches,
slip the rewind starter handle through the space
provided and remove the rear module.
o Roll the two O-rings down and pull the two white plastic
collars down over the fork legs. To ensure that they will
not interfere, let them hang loose at the base of the fork
leg.
o Remove the circular fork disc
o De-latch the two rubber latches on the sides of the belly
pan (towards the rear of the vehicle)
o De-latch the four rubber latches on the bottom of the
belly pan.
o Descend the belly pan to floor level; most maintenance
can be performed with the belly pan in this position.
However, if it is required to completely remove the belly
pan, remove the single bolt attaching the ski to the fork.
At this point, a second person can lift the front of the
vehicle slightly and the belly pan can be slid out from
underneath.
