Head Light Control Switch
For safety, the head light system of this unit
was designed to be illuminated at all times
while the unit is running. The intensity of the
light is changed by using the head light
control switch located on the right-hand
handlebar. It is a three position slide switch.
Far right position sets beam intensity to 20%
(Day Time Running), middle position sets
beam intensity to 80% (Low Beam), and far
left position sets beam intensity to 100%
(High Beam).
The vehicle is equipped with a PTC controller
that will dim the lights to the 20% position
automatically if the engine RPM falls below
the pre-set threshold for more than a minute.
Increasing the engine RPM will return the
light to the normal level for the control switch
selection.
