A thorough cleaning of your ATV is a necessary part of maintenance. It will help
keep your ATV looking and performing best. Proper cleaning can also extend the
life of your ATV.
It is important to clean and inspect your ATV after every ride, especially if it
is used in mud, brush, grass, water, salt water, or very dusty conditions
The build-up of mud, brush, grass, etc. especially on the engine and exhaust
system, can reduce engine cooling ability, conceal damage, or increase wear
of certain parts.
It is important to remove all debris during cleaning.
PREPARATION FOR CLEANING
Wash the ATV before any mud dries on the ATV.
Block or seal the end of the exhaust pipe (muffler) using a piece of plastic
wrap, cloth rag or another method to prevent water from entering engine.
CAUTION
High pressure washers could damage your ATV.
High pressure washers such as those found at coin-operated car washes
have enough pressure to damage the parts of your ATV. It may cause
rust, corrosion and increase wear.
Do not use high pressure washers to clean your ATV.
