dark, there is a sufficient amount of
fluid in the reservoir.
Brake Lever Lock
NOTE: The brake lever lock must
lock the wheels. If it doesn’t, take
the ATV to an authorized Arctic Cat
ATV dealer for service.
Brake Hoses
Carefully inspect the hydraulic brake
hoses for cracks or other damage. If
found, take the ATV to an authorized
Arctic Cat ATV dealer to have the brake
hoses replaced.
Brake Pads
The clearance between the brake pads
and brake discs is adjusted automatically
as the brake pads wear. The only mainte-
nance that is required is replacement of
the brake pads when they show excessive
wear. Check the thickness of each of the
brake pads as follows:
1. Remove a front wheel.
2. Measure the thickness of each brake
pad.
! WARNING
Be sure to inspect the hydraulic
brake system before each use.
Always maintain brakes according
to the Maintenance Schedule.
