CHECKING ADJUSTMENT
CF332A
Stop the ATV completely and shift the transmission into
the R position. The reverse gear indicator light should be
illuminated.
If the reverse light does not illuminate when shifted to
the reverse position, the switch may be faulty, the fuse
may be blown, the bulb may be faulty, a connection may
be loose or corroded, or the lever may need adjusting. To
adjust, proceed to Adjusting Shift Lever.
ADJUSTING SHIFT LEVER
1. Remove the seat; then remove the left-side engine
cover.
2. With the ignition switch in the ON position, loosen
jam nut (A) (left-hand threads); then loosen jam nut
(C) and with the shift lever in the reverse position,
adjust the coupler (B) until the transmission is in
reverse and the (R) icon appears on the LCD.

3. Tighten the jam nuts securely; then shift the trans-
mission to each position and verify correct adjust-
ment.
4. Install the left-side engine cover and seat making
sure the seat locks securely in place.

cates no signal or a poor ground wire connection in
the circuit. Troubleshoot the harness connectors,

Hydraulic Brake Systems
CHECKING/BLEEDING
The hydraulic brake systems have been filled and bled at
the factory. To check and/or bleed a hydraulic brake sys-
tem, use the following procedure.
1. With the master cylinder in a level position, check
the fluid level in the reservoir. On the hand brake if
the level in the reservoir is adequate, the sight glass
will appear dark. If the level is low, the sight glass
will appear clear. On the auxiliary brake, the level
must be between the MIN and MAX lines on the res-
ervoir.
CF295A
AL681
2. Compress the brake lever/pedal several times to
check for a firm brake. If the brake is not firm, the
system must be bled.
3. To bleed the main brake system, use the following
procedure.
A. Remove the cover and fill the reservoir with DOT
4 Brake Fluid; then install and secure the cover.
! WARNING
Never shift the ATV into reverse gear when the ATV is
moving as it could cause the ATV to stop suddenly
throwing the operator from the ATV.
