RES (RESERVE)
When fuel is exhausted in the fuel
tank when in the ON position, an
emergency supply of fuel is available
by turning the knob to RES. The re-
serve contains approximately 20% of
the fuel tank capacity for a Traxter CVT
and 30% for a Traxter 5 SPEED. Use
this position only when the ON supply
is empty.
When down to the reserve, refuel as
soon as possible. Be sure to turn the
valve back to the ON position after re-
fuelling.
CAUTION:
Improper opening
of fuel valve will restrict the flow
of fuel.
Make sure valve is fully
opened while running.
15) Rear Brake Pedal
Located on the right footrest. When
pressed down, the rear brake is ap-
plied. When released, it should return
to its original position. Braking effect
is proportional to the force applied on
the pedal and to the type and condition
of the terrain.
NOTE:
The brake will have also an ef-
fect on front wheels through the drive
train.
